The same mellow stone used for each and every building, long terraces of houses both large and small, with pavements and street lighting and TV aerials, but retaining the same solid, familiar, prosperous, confident style of so many market towns in England. Luckily they still have their cattle market once a week, which attracts farmers and country folk from the surrounding area and turns a sleepy town into a hectic bustling up-to-the-minute town for the day. The people who live in Barleybridge with its reputable schools, its smart shops, its churches, its medical practices, its science park believe themselves to be living in the best place in England. And they may very well be right!
