Excerpt from History of Burford
There are not many towns just like Burford. It stands to-day very much as it did in the days of the Georges and before. The long, wide street, the old houses, the venerable Tolsey and the Church make up a picture of past times which it has seemed well to represent by pencil and by pen, before the now distant railway invades the quiet town, bringing with it the destroying hand and disturbing influence of modern civilisation; before, too, the records of the rich historical and other associations of Burford are dispersed by Time’s relentless hand.
