About Watermead

Watermead offers a quiet corner of Gloucestershire, its modest charm unfolding under the wide, often-clouded English sky. It lies 6.5 km north-north-east of Painswick (from Painswick: bearing 24°T, OS grid SO 893 156), and is situated south of Brockworth village. Here, the landscape gently slopes, a subtle invitation to explore the hedgerows that trace ancient field boundaries, their hawthorn blossoms a fleeting white promise in the spring air. The houses, mostly built of stone or brick, seem to settle comfortably into the earth, their gardens often a riot of colour where roses and delphiniums vie for attention. A small stream, its waters catching the diffused light, murmurs through the heart of Watermead, a constant, quiet companion to the lives lived here. The air itself carries a certain softness, a gentle dampness that speaks of the nearby Cotswold hills, and the distant scent of damp earth after a soft rain.
