Traveller notes on Stratford-upon-Avon in July
July in Stratford is high season and the forum is blunt that the town is always packed with visitors in summer. On weather they offer the English shrug — a couple of degrees warmer than northern England, but still England and therefore totally unpredictable — against a real July average near 21°C and rain on about twelve days. What July does reliably deliver is light: over sixteen hours of it, which is why regulars say a short visit works as a day trip in this month specifically, with time left over for a boat trip. The annual River Festival also lands in July.
