Sherborne Gloucestershire Map

About Sherborne

Sherborne, a quiet corner of the Cotswold landscape, breathes the soft air of Gloucestershire. It lies 5.2 km east of Northleach (from Northleach: bearing 87°T, OS grid SP 165 148), and is situated south of Clapton-on-the-Hill village. The very stones of Sherborne seem to absorb the gentle light that spills across the rolling hills, a light that can turn the local limestone a warm honey hue at dusk. Its modest centre, where the village green offers a patch of tranquil repose, whispers of lives lived in steady succession. The surrounding fields, often a patchwork of green and gold depending on the season's bounty, speak of a long agricultural heritage, the land yielding its produce with a quiet generosity. Though not a place of grand pronouncements, Sherborne holds a certain dignified charm, a place where the ancient hedgerows still hold their secrets and the distant bleating of sheep is the loudest sound to break the peace.
