Ebrington (known locally as Yabberton or Yubberton) is a village and civil parish in Gloucestershire, England, about from Chipping Campden. It has narrow lanes and tiny streets of Cotswold stone houses and cottages, many of which are thatched.
==History== Ebrington has a history of settlement reaching back to before the Roman era. Iron Age pottery, a gold coin and Neolithic/Bronze Age flints have been found. The village is 26 NNE of Cirencester (Roman Corinium, Britain's second largest town after London). The Cotswold region formed part of the rich 'villa zone' of Roman Britain, the wealthiest part of Britain. The Fosse Way Roman road runs south-west 6 miles away from the village. In 1958–1959, a Roman villa on the eastern edge of the village, facing towards the Fosse Way, was excavated. Described as a bathing house, the rooms were "sumptuously appointed" and included a tesselated floor and a plunge bath. Roman tiles were re-used in the church buildings.
