A medieval wool town at the northern end of the Cotswolds, Chipping Campden has one of the most complete High Streets of any English market town, lined with buildings dating from the fourteenth to the seventeenth centuries. The Church of St James, with its Perpendicular Gothic tower, anchors one end of the street and contains memorials to the wool merchants who funded it. The Cotswold Way long-distance footpath passes through the town, making it a natural staging point for walking the escarpment.
