Tormarton
Tormarton offers a warm welcome to travellers with a choice of places to obtain refreshments. Accommodation, too, can be found in the area. Tormarton takes its name from the "tower" of the church which is of a heavy, Norman, square construction.
St Martin's Church bears witness to several different styles of construction but is predominantly Norman in influence. The yew trees lining the approach to the church themselves date back as much as 400 years. Inside the Church you will find a fine example of a Norman font as well as memorials dating back to the crusades (one tablet is topped by a gauntleted hand grasping a bloody, dismembered hand!).
Despite its proximity to the motorway, Tormarton is a peaceful village with a friendly welcome to travellers seeking somewhere to rest along the Cotswold Way National Trail.
