From Domesday to the coming of the internet and broadband Blewbury is seen as a microcosm in a wider world.
Look down from the lynchets on Blewburton Hill and you can see Blewbury village partly hidden by trees. Today it is a hub of activity, but this has not always been so. Its history has been mainly agricultural and peaceful but not without interest. This small, quiet village has always kept pace with changes over time and responded to the many influences surrounding it especially since the Second World War.
