About Yorkley Slade

Yorkley Slade breathes the quiet, verdant essence of the Forest of Dean. It lies 4.0 km north of Lydney (from Lydney: bearing 11°T, OS grid SO 641 071), and is situated east-north-east of Yorkley village. The air here, often carrying the scent of damp earth and ancient trees, seems to hold a gentle hush, a stillness that has settled over the landscape like a soft moss. The houses of Yorkley Slade, a modest scattering of dwellings, appear to rise organically from the forest's edge, their windows reflecting the dappled sunlight filtering through the leaves. Beyond the village, the terrain slopes away, hinting at the deeper woodlands and the quiet streams that thread through this ancient royal forest. The very soil beneath one’s feet feels imbued with a deep, unhurried history, a sense of time measured not in years, but in the slow growth of oak and beech.
