About Kempley Green

Kempley Green breathes the quietude of the Forest of Dean's edge, a place where ancient woodlands begin to soften into rolling fields. It lies 5.6 km north-west of Newent (from Newent: bearing 304°T, OS grid SO 675 290), and is situated north of Gorsley village. The very air here seems to hold a gentle, earthy scent, a subtle perfume of damp soil and distant bracken, particularly potent after a summer rain. The village green itself, a broad expanse of rich, dark turf, feels like a gathering place for light, catching the sun's rays and holding them in its soft embrace before they spill onto the surrounding lanes. A sense of quiet industry often pervades Kempley Green, a legacy of its past agricultural life, where the distant hum of tractors might be heard on a clear morning. The surrounding landscape, a patchwork of hedgerows and mature trees, offers glimpses of a pastoral beauty that has long been the hallmark of this corner of Gloucestershire.
