Sapperton Gloucestershire Map

About Sapperton

Sapperton rests where the Cotswold hills begin their gentle descent towards the Vale of Evesham. It lies 7.6 km west of Cirencester (from Cirencester: bearing 280°T, OS grid SO 947 033), and is situated east-north-east of Frampton Mansell village. The village's ancient heart beats around its parish church, St. Nicholas, a venerable structure whose stones have absorbed centuries of quiet devotion, and the nearby Sapperton Canal tunnel, a remarkable feat of engineering that once facilitated the transport of goods, its portals now hinting at a bygone era of industry. Here, the light often falls in soft, diffused swathes through the canopy of surrounding woodlands, lending an ethereal quality to the stone cottages and the winding lanes that meander through the landscape. The very air seems to carry a whisper of the past, a faint resonance of the travellers and barges that once passed through this tranquil corner of Gloucestershire.
