About Highnam

Highnam reveals a landscape where the flat, silty plains of the Severn Vale meet the gradual rise of the western hills. It lies 2.5 miles west-north-west of Gloucester (from Gloucester: bearing 294°T, OS grid SO 793 201), and is situated west-south-west of Maisemore village. Sunlight catches the limestone masonry of Highnam Court, where thirty-eight hectares of gardens hold the stillness of a long-settled estate. Beyond the manicured lawns, the dense canopy of Highnam Woods stretches toward the horizon, offering a sanctuary of oak and ash that feels far removed from the bustle of the nearby trunk roads. The air here carries a heavy, damp sweetness, a scent of river mud and ancient leaf mould that rises whenever the wind shifts from the Severn. To the north, the elevation of Lassington Hill provides a vantage point over the patchwork of fields, where the transition from flood-prone meadows to higher ground is marked by sudden, sharp changes in the flora. Highnam remains defined by this interface of water and earth, a place where the geography is etched by the slow, persistent work of the river’s reach.
