A Towering Journey
It’s never easy deciding where to go on a holiday. We had an
idea planned for various places that we’d like to visit then one week we
decided to round them all up into one trip instead. We investigated camping then
we thought that for the time of the year and the weather, it was cheaper to
stay in built accommodation. We had a route planned and managed to book all our
accommodation the evening before we left. Our first stop was to Broadway Tower,
the highest point on our tour and the gateway to the Cotswolds. It was also the
most scenic route to the Gloucester Docks. We parked in the lay-by on the road
outside to avoid the hefty £6 car park charge. Unfortunately, the nuclear
bunker wasn’t open and I couldn’t find the giant chess set that was there in my
childhood (I think it’s been replaced by the café and the arts centre) but we
did get great views. My friend suffers from vertigo so he didn’t fancy paying
to go into the museum to climb the tower and I didn’t really feel like
venturing up on my own. So onwards we went.
