Evesham was an important town in the Middle Ages, its abbey being one of the largest in Europe. One of the country's earliest musical theorists, Walter Odington, was a monk there. The abbey was home to famous monks, abbots, martyrs and saints. Of particular note, the town was the scene of the famous (infamous?) Battle of Evesham in 1265. Situated on the River Avon, the area is also noted for its rich soil and long history of fruit and vegetable production, and market gardening is still strongly associated with Evesham.
