For 500 years the sheep created the rolling Cotswold landscape, and money from the wool enabled the building of the mellow limestone churches, manor houses and Cotswold cottages we love so well. Generations of shepherds, wool merchants, weavers, quarrymen and stonemasons have all made their mark on this land, and, here in Filkins, Cotswold Woollen Weavers continues in this ancient tradition. … Has stood at 100 High Street since 1721. Now you can visit the Hall, buy CWW throws and scarves. Then there are events of all sorts… AND you can enjoy an excellent pie.

Our village of FILKINS lies on an ancient route from the high Cotswolds to the Thames, and beyond to the South Coast. ‘Filkins’ is probably the ‘Ing’ or meadow of Filica the Saxon, a local chieftain who settled here over a thousand years ago. You can find out more about what has happened in the village since(!) by clicking HERE. Filkins is all mellow, Cotswold limestone; we’ve about 450 inhabitants, there is a great pub (The Five Alls), two very interesting churches, and it is a beautiful place to explore when you visit us.
