The Rissingtons

Once there were three, now there are four; the new village of Upper Rissington emerging from the former Little Rissington RAF base along the hilltop between the Windrush and the Evenlode Valleys. Great and Little Rissington are good vernacular Cotswold villages on the hillside with some fine cottages and farmhouses. Wyck Rissington on the Oxfordshire Way enjoys a large open central greet and a church where the composer Gustav Holst was organist a century ago.
