Chipping Norton began as a few houses with a church and castle at the bottom of the hill. Only the earthworks of the castle remain, but the church is a fine example of a 'wool church' enlarged by local merchants who grew rich on the profits of the Cotswold wool trade. A new market to promote trade was laid out in 1205, which formed the new town centre higher up the hill, where it still is today. Many of the original houses around the market place were rebuilt in the 18th century with fashionable 'Georgian' fronts.
