About Brookend

Brookend lies under a wide Gloucestershire sky, a quiet settlement where the land begins its gentle swell towards the Forest of Dean. It lies 5.0 km east of Lydney (from Lydney: bearing 100°T, OS grid SO 683 022), and is situated north of Wanswell village. The air here often carries the scent of damp earth and distant woodlands, a fragrance that speaks of the surrounding countryside. The houses, a modest collection of stone and brick, seem to huddle together as if sharing some ancient secret, their roofs catching the afternoon sun in hues of russet and grey. A small stream, the namesake of Brookend, murmurs its way through the landscape, its quiet persistence a constant presence. Here, the passage of seasons marks the true rhythm of life, each change painting the fields and hedgerows with a fresh palette.
