Elcombe Gloucestershire Map

About Elcombe

Elcombe breathes a quiet existence in the Gloucestershire landscape. It lies 2.7 km east-south-east of Dursley (from Dursley: bearing 108°T, OS grid ST 782 972), and is situated south-south-west of Uley village. The hamlet’s modest cluster of stone dwellings seems to absorb the soft, diffused light that filters through the surrounding ancient woodland, lending a gentle permanence to its appearance. Here, the very air can feel imbued with the scent of damp earth and the distant murmur of water, a subtle reminder of the nearby Cotswold escarpment and its hidden springs. Elcombe’s history is not one of grand pronouncements but of quiet continuity, a slow unfolding of generations whose lives were tied to the land and the small industries that once thrived here. A palpable sense of enduring peace pervades the lanes, where hedgerows thick with hawthorn and wild roses mark the boundaries between fields, often catching the dew in a delicate, shimmering veil.
