About Prestbury

Prestbury, a village in Gloucestershire, carries a quiet dignity. It lies 2.6 km east-north-east of Cheltenham (from Cheltenham: bearing 57°T, OS grid SO 970 238), and is situated south of Southam village. The ancient parish church of St. Mary, with its imposing Norman tower, stands as a landmark, its stones weathered by centuries of Cotswold rain. The village itself, composed of honey-coloured stone cottages, seems to breathe in the soft, diffused light that often filters through the surrounding countryside. A small stream, the Chelt, meanders through Prestbury, its gentle murmur a constant, low-key soundtrack to village life. Historically, Prestbury was an important ecclesiastical centre, its roots stretching back into the Saxon era, a past that still whispers from its ancient lanes.
