Ozleworth

The civil parish of Ozleworth sits on the western edge of the Cotswold hills in Gloucestershire, England. It is a very small, sparsely populated place of Cotswold stone cottages, pasture and rolling limestone downland, set within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offering fine views across the Severn Vale towards the Forest of Dean; the nearest market town is the attractive Wotton-under-Edge.

Historically the parish has an agricultural character and a compact historic core with a small medieval church and old farm buildings, and its quiet lanes and bridleways make it popular with walkers seeking a rural escape. Today the local economy remains largely farming-based, supplemented by small-scale tourism and by residents who commute to nearby towns, and community life tends to be low-key and conservation-minded, focused on maintaining the traditional Cotswold landscape.
