The village and civil parish of Staunton sits on the edge of the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire, England. It’s a compact, rural settlement of stone cottages and a village green, with lanes that open into ancient woodland and a sense of countryside tranquillity rather than urban bustle.
Historically the community grew around forestry, small-scale farming and the Forest’s extractive trades, and you can still see traditional architecture and a historic manor house that hint at that past. Today it combines a quiet local community with visitors drawn to walking and cycling in the Forest; services and connections are close by in Coleford and Gloucester, making it popular with commuters as well as country-lovers.
