Corse is a small rural village and civil parish in the Forest of Dean district of Gloucestershire, England. Set among rolling farmland and hedgerow-lined lanes, it retains a quiet, agricultural character with a scattering of historic houses and narrow country roads that give a strong sense of the local countryside.
The community has long been shaped by farming and estate ownership, with village life often revolving around a parish church, a village hall and seasonal events. While agriculture remains important, many residents commute to nearby towns and the parish appeals to walkers and anyone seeking rural tranquillity rather than busy tourist centres.
