Moreton is a thriving market town dating back 1000 years to the Saxon era, located at the head of the beautiful Evenlode valley. Moreton in the Marsh has the advantage of its own railway station and the train from Paddington in central London is 1 hour 20 minutes journey
King Charles I granted a charter for the market in 1637, which is still exercised every Tuesday, when the High Street is thronged with market stalls and shoppers from all over the Midlands. In the Civil War Moreton was a centre for the Royalist cavalry and King Charles stayed at the White Hart Royal on his final march from his Oxford headquarters. The foundation of a linen-weaving industry and the advent of turnpikes on the main roads in the mid 18th century increased the town's importance, and many of the buildings in the High Street date from this time, although the earliest building is the 16th century Curfew Tower. The Redesdale Arms and the White Hart Royal were much used for the eight London-Worcester stagecoaches which stopped here every day. Moreton had one of the earliest railways in the country when the Stratford-Moreton Tramway opened in 1826. The main line between London, Oxford and Worcester followed in 1853. .
