About Broughton Poggs

Broughton Poggs, a quiet hamlet, exhales the scent of ancient earth and damp stone. It lies 4.9 km north-north-east of Lechlade-on-Thames (from Lechlade-on-Thames: bearing 24°T, OS grid SP 233 039), and is situated south-west of Filkins village. The fields surrounding Broughton Poggs hold a particular quality of light, a soft, golden haze that seems to linger long after the sun has dipped below the horizon, lending a timeless feel to the landscape. The small parish church, St. Mary's, stands as a sentinel of weathered Cotswold stone, its quiet spire a familiar landmark against the expansive sky, a stoic witness to centuries of passing seasons and lives. A gentle stream, perhaps no more than a trickle in drier months, carves a winding path through the surrounding meadows, reflecting the overarching heavens in its shallow depths. The very air in Broughton Poggs seems to hum with a subtle stillness, a peaceful quietude that invites contemplation.
