The sign on the abbey grounds mentioned Coxwell and Dollar streets, so we headed in that direction. We saw some older buildings on the main street before we reached those streets.
Coxwell Street is narrow and lined with older stone buildings, with the odd courtyard branching off.
On some buildings you can still read the year it was built.
The Quaker Meeting House, built in 1673, is still in use as a meeting house. There’s also a Salvation Army Church. I couldn’t find any information on when that was built. It looks old, but then “old” has a whole new meaning in Europe.
This is the oldest secular building in Cirencester.
A nice local we met at the bus stop said that you can tell the age of a building by how wavy the roof is, so we started looking for that. This store definitely has the wavy roof going. And some cute whippet statues out front.
