Actually, there is also an Eastrop,, both now part of Highworth. Eastrop is on the eastern approah to Highworth on the road to Faringdon, however Westrop is North West of Highworth,; both the "trops" are though, east and west of eachother. I always thought, in my ignorance that "thorp", "thrupp" and "trop" etc came from Norse, and I didn't think the Vikings got so far as to surround a Saxon town, but it seems the terms are very similar in these languages. Also, what was the ghosty stuff about? Anyway, Highworth is a fine wee town, though Swindon keeps getting nearer!
Highworth is a stunning place, i moved to Wiltshire 8 years ago and this is the first time i visited. wish i had visited before, beautiful place. thanks for your comment and i have pinned the comment, so it will be the first comment people will see. As for the ghost stuff, i kind of like the story's. Not saying i believe in ghosts, but they are stories that some how is now part of the places history.
What a lovely town Highworth is Cara. Lots of history too. Nice church & stained glass windows well looked after too. Love the blue stained glass wow! Canon ball hit church. Amazing story, glad it’s still standing so you can show us. Thank you fir sharing this with us Cara x💕💐
Hi Cara, Thank you for having me at the premiere. I don't see you explore the town often but here it is, Wiltshre! I might be wrong but one of the left two windows on the second floor is blur. 3:03 unless something wrong with my laptop. Or spooky ghostly thing? (I mentioned I the chat) Wow, the scale of stained glass and vaulted ceiling give me chills, magnificent! Is that up-right piano? 4:18 or just a heavy ornate chair? Her again, the design is truly appreciated. 4:51 Wow, Civil War history still tabard holds untold history What's on the back? Is that leather? I thought is is old Kimono Dress Unbelievable evidence 6:34. Many may say a bad thing about this scar on the church, but I may say this is an honor of scar, depict the church stands still proudly with a high positive reputation. I am going to cry if this is my study 10:31 Again, thank you and nice chatting with you, Cara. See you soon, ciao
The blur out window must have been something on the lens. It’s a very heavy chair at 4:18. I agree, I see these scars as a badge of honour. The fact that it so small damage is amazing, modern houses wouldn’t handle that. Thanks for watching 😊
So many beautiful buildings inside and outside. Love the historical architecture and lovely landscapes. Also so much great history and information. Enjoy the week.
Wow, this was truly a great place. Also, very pretty. So historic. That cannonball hit / cannonball in the church as well! And that coat amazing. Also, love the ghostly tale! This is now.on my list!
A beautiful little town Cara. We are so lucky in this country to have so much history everywhere we go. Loved the Civil War stuff. So many towns in the West were Royalist for so long. They seemed to be treated worse than others after Cromwell too over. Imagine shooting at a Church even then!! Amazing to see the Cannonball damage and I expect they hung that ball up as a sign of how bad the War was. Another wonderful and thought provoking vid Cara. Love it.
I’m glad these place show the damage off, it’s hard to imagine it with out that. If that makes sense. Amazing how these church with stroud the damage, you wouldn’t get that with Modern building. Such a beautiful place, thanks for watching
Wonderful tour! I love seeing these old historically rich towns, and this one is so lovely. The Church is stunning and who doesn’t love a good ghost story! Great share, thanks🤩😎
Enjoyed the tour of Wiltshire, Cara. Interesting history and lovely town. Stunning church with beautiful stained glass. Love a good ghost story! Thanks for bringing us along.
Such a lovely tour of highworth interesting to learn about the cannonball and it bieng the highest in Wiltshire ❤. We hope your keeping well and having a good day Simon and Beth ❤🙋
Hi Cara, really enjoyed looking around Highworth, loved the Church, the stained glass windows were beautiful. Great reading all of the history. loved that the cannon ball is made from wood. We like to hear a spooky story too. Thank you for sharing, see you soon x Julie and Tony x
Hi Cara this looked like a lovely market town, so pretty as you have us a look around and according to what remains have been found around the hilltop, has so nuch interest history. The church was lovely with its beautiful windows and the cannonball replica was good to see, a reminder maybe of all what happened in the civil war but ooo i don't like the sound of that ghostly figure hanging about ! This was lovely ~ Anna
A wonderful place to visit to try to experience any paranormal. Wonderful history of this good looking church. The civil war weapon still hanging in there. That canon ball age is amazing

Really cool video Cara. Thank you for sharing and bringing some Highworth history to life. I especially find the canon ball damage really fascinating as it makes me stop and think about all the history before us... Take care Cara... Mark
If it was a Saxon settlement in the 6th century you would have thought something would have been at the site of the church, even something pagan hey, interesting place👍 ghosts hey, Corrine will be there soon
That's what i thought, so was a little shocked that i couldn't find any mention of an earlier church. yeah i sent Corrine the website of all the ghosts in that area :-)

Unbelievable evidence 6:34. Many may say a bad thing about this scar on the church, but I may say this is an honor of scar, depict the church stands still proudly with a high positive reputation.
