Haresfield Gloucestershire Map

About Haresfield

Haresfield gazes out from its Gloucestershire perch, a quiet sentinel overlooking the Severn Vale. It lies 5.1 km north of Stonehouse (from Stonehouse: bearing 10°T, OS grid SO 814 102), and is situated south-west of Brookthorpe village. The land hereabouts slopes gently, catching the afternoon sun in a way that turns the distant Cotswold escarpment to a soft, hazy gold, a colour that seems to tint the very air. Ancient footpaths, worn smooth by generations of walkers and the occasional farmer's cart, crisscross the fields, hinting at a continuity of human presence that predates recorded memory. The parish church, St. Peter's, with its sturdy Norman tower, stands as a quiet anchor, its stone weathered by centuries of rain and wind, a silent witness to the passing seasons. Haresfield, for all its unassuming nature, possesses a subtle grace, a feeling of deep roots stretching into the rich, dark soil.
