Edge is a small village on the Cotswold escarpment in the district of Stroud, Gloucestershire, England. Perched above the Severn Vale, it benefits from classic Cotswold limestone scenery and wide views across the vale; the village sits within the broader Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and feels very much part of that rolling, rural landscape.
Traditionally agricultural, Edge today combines farming, small local businesses and a number of people who commute into nearby towns. Its character is defined by stone cottages, lanes and access to popular walking routes across the escarpment, and the community has a quiet, village atmosphere with the sort of local events and neighbourly activity common to rural settlements in the Cotswolds.
