Whiteshill Gloucestershire Map

About Whiteshill

Whiteshill rises from the Gloucestershire landscape, a collection of dwellings touched by the soft, diffused light that often graces the Cotswold escarpment. It lies 2.4 km north-north-west of Stroud (from Stroud: bearing 334°T, OS grid SO 839 074), and is situated north-east of Ruscombe village. The village unfolds across slopes that offer glimpses of the Stroud valley below, where the ancient wool trade once pulsed with life. Here, the houses seem to converse with the surrounding hills, their stone facades absorbing the muted hues of the English countryside. Though no great rivers course through Whiteshill, the gentle contours of the land speak of water's patient sculpting over millennia, shaping the very ground upon which its few, quiet streets are laid. The air, carrying the faint scent of damp earth and distant hedgerows, often holds a stillness that allows one to hear the rustle of leaves and the distant bleating of sheep.
