Woodcroft breathes the quiet air of the Forest of Dean, a place where ancient woodland whispers secrets to the sky. It lies 10.8 km west-north-west of Thornbury (from Thornbury: bearing 300°T, OS grid ST 543 957), and is situated north-north-east of Tutshill village. The gentle slope of the land here seems to encourage a contemplative mood, a quality perhaps inherited from the scattered dwellings that have long made their home amongst these trees. Though no grand abbey or castle dominates its skyline, Woodcroft possesses a subtle dignity, its modest buildings harmonising with the surrounding green expanse. The very light filtering through the leaves overhead seems to possess a particular softness, painting the lanes and gardens with a muted, golden hue. The sense of Woodcroft is one of quiet endurance, a place that has quietly observed the passage of centuries.
