The civil parish of Gorsley and Kilcot sits in the Forest of Dean district of Gloucestershire in England, close to the border with Herefordshire. It is a compact, rural area of two villages and scattered hamlets surrounded by farmland and small woodlands, with lanes that link into the wider Forest of Dean and the nearby Wye Valley, popular for walking and cycling.
Historically agricultural, the area combines traditional cottages and farmsteads with a growing number of conversions and commuters who work in nearby market towns. Local life centres on a modest village infrastructure, community events and clubs that give a strong sense of place, while small businesses and homeworking now sit alongside farming to shape the local economy.
