<p>A stop off in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moreton-in-Marsh" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Moreton-in-Marsh</a> in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire on the way back after a week in Swindon, Wiltshire.<br />
<br />
<br />
Moreton-in-Marsh is a market town in the Evenlode Valley, within the Cotswolds district and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Gloucestershire, England.<br />
<br />
Its flat and low-lying site is surrounded by the Cotswold Hills. The River Evenlode rises near Batsford, runs around the edge of Moreton and meanders towards Oxford, where it flows into the river Thames just east of Eynsham.<br />
<br />
Just over 2 miles (3.2 km) east of Moreton, the Four shire stone marked the boundary of the historic counties of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Oxfordshire, until the re-organisation of the county boundaries in 1931. Since then it marks the meeting place of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire and Oxfordshire.<br />
