About Evesham - Roughly equidistant between Worcester, Cheltenham, and Stratford-upon-Avon, it was originally built within a loop of the River Avon, which flows through the Vale of Evesham. The Vale is known for fruit growing and market gardening, due to its unusually fertile soil which means it is one of the country's most well-known production centres for fruit and vegetables. Shopping - The Riverside Shopping Centre has been developed with the shopper in mind to give a blend of the old and new. Well known high street names mingle with smaller traders offering all manner of gifts and services which makes shopping a pleasurable experience for all.
