About Highleadon

Highleadon maintains a quiet, sequestered existence within the pastoral folds of the Gloucestershire landscape. It lies 3.3 miles east-south-east of Newent (from Newent: bearing 116°T, OS grid SO 769 235), and is situated north-north-east of Tibberton village. The land here rises and falls with a deliberate, slow grace, defined by the persistent presence of Red Hill, which looms just a short distance to the north-north-west. Beneath the grey, diffused light of the morning, the heavy clay soil seems to hold the moisture of the seasons, giving the fields a saturated, deep-green intensity. Water plays a vital role in the character of Highleadon, as the nearby Ell Brook cuts a narrow, meandering path through the low-lying meadows. The architecture of the surrounding farms suggests a long history of agricultural industry, where stone and timber have been weathered by decades of salt-laden winds blowing in from the Severn Vale. Every hedgerow and fence line marks a boundary that has been maintained with a stoic, quiet persistence by generations of local hands. Highleadon possesses a singular, unadorned beauty that reveals itself only to those willing to observe the subtle shifts in the horizon.
