The Churcham parish sits on the western edge of the Forest of Dean district in Gloucestershire, England, a few miles west of Gloucester. It’s a small, rural community of farmland, hedgerows and pockets of ancient woodland with views across the Severn Vale, and historically grew up around its village church and a scattering of farmsteads.
Today Churcham retains a strong agricultural character alongside residents who commute to nearby towns, with a village hall, church and local groups that anchor community life; several older houses and listed buildings hint at its long past, while proximity to the wider Forest of Dean and the River Severn floodplain offers good opportunities for walking, wildlife and participation in local events.
