The Bulletin  

DON'T MISS “BRIGALOW"— mge 20  

The Bulletin,” Vol. 77 No. 3986  

Wednesday, July 4, 1956  

Price 1/-  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper.  

AT THE SHRINE OF THE BARD,  

STRATFORD-ON-AVON  

WORLD-FAMOUS Stratford-upon-  

Avon in the heart of Warwickshire  

had its origin as Romano-British  

village. This settlement beside ford  

across the River Avon explains the  

derivation of its name. In 693 mon-  

astery was established there. Three  

hundred and seventy years later, at the  

time of the Norman Conquest, Stratford  

consisted of small community of  

people who are chiefly engaged in agri-  

culture.  

In 1196, in the reign of King John, it  

was granted weekly market which still  

exists. The town is the centre of  

predominantly rural area, bounded on  

the south by the beautiful Cotswolds,  

the Vale of Evesham and the Edgehills  

countryside noted for its farms and  

market gardens, with scattered wood-  

lands, parks and orchards.  

In 1553 Stratford became self-  

governing borough and during Shake-  

speare’s lifetime it prospered with  

market activities and as centre of local  

crafts. Its importance was partly due  

to the building of Clopton Bridge across  

the River Avon at the end of the 15th  

century by Hugh Clopton, native of  

Stratford who became Lord Mayor of  

London. This late medieval bridge with  

its fourteen stone arches, still in’existence,  

laid the future prosperity of the town.  

Later, the growing appreciation of Shake-  

speare began to reflect itself in the  

increasing number of pilgrims who  

travelled from far and wide to visit the  

Shakespeare shrines.  

The most convenient itinerary for visit-  

ing these places of interest in Stratford  

commences at Clopton Bridge and not  

far away is the Shakespeare .Statue,  

shown in the accompanying illustration.  

This statue was the work of Lord Ronald  

Sutherland Gower and it was presented to  

the town in 1888. The small figures at  

the four corners depict Hamlet, Lady  

Macbeth, Falstaff and Prince Hal,  

symbolising philosophy, tragedy, comedy  

and history.  

No. 305: the Homeland Series by the House of Seppelt.
