Culworth

Travel Guide

Site of Eydon Road Halt, near Culworth 1992. View northward: a sylvan scene where once ran the important ex-Great Central line between Woodford Halse (Culworth Junction) on the 'London Extension' and Banbury on the ex-GWR system. Halts on this line were served by a few local trains, but the line mainly served as an important link for North-South freight and some through express passenger traffic - until at a stroke all was abandoned on 5/9/66, and since then everything has proceeded along the A34 road system
Danes Moor This was the site of an important battle during the Wars of the Roses - the Battle of Edgcote in July 1469. An army consisting mainly of Welshmen under the Earl of Pembroke was defeated by a rebel army marching south to join the Earl of Warwick, who was plotting against the King, Edward IV.

The battle on the 26th July 1469 was a black day for the Welsh, Pembroke was captured and executed and 168 Welsh noblemen were killed along with many hundreds of common soldiers.
