アヴェニングの洞窟・トップ4

The fort is privately owned and not open to visitors. Nevertheless, the trip is worth it, especially for the magnificent views over Stroud to the Severn.

If you find yourself in Gloucestershire, Woodchester Mansion in Nympsfield is worth considering. It's an unfinished Gothic revival house with a peculiar story, as construction halted in the mid-1870s, leaving it complete externally but with many interior spaces unfinished. The mansion opens seasonally to the public, and also seasonally houses a cafe. This unique state of preservation, along with a resident bat colony, makes for a rather distinct and thought-provoking visit.

Film set location and amazingly photogenic. In private ownership - respect their privacy when visiting the demesne

Rodborough Fort is a historical landmark perched ontop of Rodborough Hill near Stroud. Its hilltop vantage point meant it played a vital rote in strategic defence during different periods of history. You can read about the fort at its location and learn more about its fascinating past.

Beautiful Country House with gardens and Estate Walks. Coffee Shop and Toilets.

A stunning semi-finished mansion , which is supposed to be haunted. I find doubtful... not least because it's never been lived in! 😃

A great NT park with a good variety of walking trails for all. The parking is also only £3 for the day if you aren't a NT member!
