Horton, a quiet corner of Gloucestershire, breathes with the soft murmur of rural life. It lies 3.6 km north-east of Chipping Sodbury (from Chipping Sodbury: bearing 49°T, OS grid ST 755 845), and is situated south-west of Hawkesbury Upton village. The gentle rise of the Cotswold escarpment forms a backdrop to Horton, its pale stone houses catching the low, honeyed light of afternoon. Ancient field boundaries, long since softened by the passage of seasons, still trace the contours of the land, suggesting a continuity of human endeavour that stretches back through generations. The air here often carries the clean scent of turned earth and, on market days in nearby Chipping Sodbury, a faint echo of commerce.
