About Barton

Barton, a suburban expanse within Gloucestershire's district, breathes with a quiet sense of place. It lies 1.2 km south-east of Gloucester (from Gloucester: bearing 125°T, OS grid SO 840 177). The land here, gently sloping, catches the afternoon sun in a way that softens the edges of modern dwellings and hints at the broader agricultural sweep of the Severn Vale. Though much of Barton is a product of recent development, the ancient ley lines of the county still seem to hum beneath the tarmac, a subtle echo of older patterns. The occasional mature oak, standing sentinel on a roadside verge, remembers a time when this was open country, a place where the distant Mendips could be seen on a clear day.
