Evesham, Market town in Worcestershire, England

Evesham sits on a peninsula formed by the River Avon, positioned between Worcester, Cheltenham, and Stratford-upon-Avon in the fertile Vale of Evesham.

The Battle of Evesham in 1265 marked a turning point when Prince Edward defeated Simon de Montfort, changing the course of English medieval politics.

The Almonry Museum, housed in a 14th-century building, exhibits local artifacts and presents the history of the town through archaeological findings.

The town council manages 24 representatives across eight wards, overseeing local planning applications and distributing grants to community organizations.

Local agricultural tenancies follow the Evesham Custom, a specific legal framework that governs relationships between landowners and market gardeners.
