Ham Gloucestershire Map

About Ham

Ham, a quiet corner of Gloucestershire, unfolds its gentle presence against the rolling landscape. It lies 6.6 km south-east of Lydney (from Lydney: bearing 136°T, OS grid ST 679 984), and is situated south-south-west of Berkeley village. The air here often carries the faint, earthy scent of damp soil and distant pasture, a perfume of the Severn Vale. Fields, patterned like a patchwork quilt, stretch towards the horizon, occasionally broken by the dark, sturdy shapes of ancient hedgerows. The stone cottages, their roofs often softened by moss and lichen, seem to have grown organically from the very earth, each one a testament to generations of quiet living. Even on a grey day, the light possesses a certain luminous quality, catching the dew on spiderwebs stretched between gateposts and lending a subtle sheen to the weathered wood of farm buildings.
