Lovely place to visit with beautiful views and walks around the countryside and trek along part of the Cotswold way. Although technically, at this stage the Cotswolds escarpment has ended, and you are no longer looking at Cotswold jurassic stone, but instead a weaker Bath stone, without the famous honey coloured beauty. Car park with limited spaces and needs a bit of tidying up.

Britain’s first war monument is right off the Cotswold Way hiking trail. Lots of friendly dogs and dog walkers around. The path was a bit muddy when we visited so I would suggest wellies or hiking boots. Not the most accessible but we managed to get a pram down the trail and back to the road. Free entry, free parking, child friendly and dog friendly.

I never knew about this Royalist battle, Battle of Lansdown. All of the signboards around the site tells of a hard fought victory for the Royalists. The death of Sir Bevil Granville is noted at this memorial. The whole battle ground is surrounded by a wall with information boards It’s well worth doing.
