The Scarr, a quiet corner of Gloucestershire, breathes the air of the Forest of Dean. It lies 1.9 km north of Newent (from Newent: bearing 9°T, OS grid SO 725 277), and is situated south-south-east of Botloe's Green village. The land here, softened by centuries of cultivation and the encroaching woodland, slopes gently, catching the sunlight in long, diffused shafts that seem to whisper secrets of the ancient trees. A palpable sense of stillness pervades The Scarr, a quietude broken only by the murmur of the wind through the leaves or the distant call of a bird. The very earth feels yielding, a deep, rich loam that has nourished generations of farmers and foresters. Even the small cluster of dwellings seems to have grown organically from the landscape, their stone and timber blending with the surrounding hues of green and brown.
