Aldington and Badsey:
Villages in the Vale.
A Tapestry of Local History

This is the third in a series of books written about the old Worcestershire villages of Badsey and Aldington, which lie in the heart of the Vale of Evesham. A team of writers have, with great dedication and meticulous research, put together more fascinating historical facts and entertaining reflections on these villages. I have lived in Badsey all my life and appreciate that so many people have chosen to share information and photographs, which otherwise may have never been recorded.
