Fairford, Administrative town in Cotswold District, England

Fairford sits along the River Coln, featuring stone buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries that line the main thoroughfare of this Gloucestershire settlement.

The town received its royal market charter in the 12th century and developed into a significant coaching stop between London and Gloucester during medieval times.

St Mary's Church contains England's only complete set of 28 medieval stained glass windows, depicting detailed biblical narratives through colored panels.

The town center maintains a weekly market each Wednesday, offering local products and fresh goods to residents and visitors of the Cotswolds region.

RAF Fairford serves as the location for the Royal International Air Tattoo in July, the largest military aviation display in the world.
