About Shakesfield

Shakesfield breathes the quietude of the Forest of Dean, a scatter of homes embraced by ancient woodland. It lies 6.1 km south-south-west of Ledbury (from Ledbury: bearing 194°T, OS grid SO 696 316), and is situated north-north-west of Dymock village. Here, the air often carries the damp, earthy scent of fallen leaves and moss, and the sunlight, when it breaks through the canopy, paints shifting patterns on the narrow lanes that thread through the hamlet. The rhythm of Shakesfield is dictated by the rustle of leaves and the occasional call of a woodland bird, a slow cadence that has endured for generations. Though small, the very soil of Shakesfield seems to hold the whisper of its past, a continuity felt in the enduring presence of the ancient trees that guard it.
