Frampton on Severn sits in the district of Stroud in Gloucestershire, England, on the low-lying floodplain of the River Severn. The village is best known for one of the longest village greens in England, a sweeping common that still hosts cricket and annual fetes, and for nearby Frampton Pools, former gravel workings turned into an important nature reserve and wintering site for wildfowl and waders.
Frampton retains a historic rural character with timber-framed cottages, a notable parish church and the nearby country house Frampton Court, reflecting its manorial past. Today it’s a close-knit community popular with walkers, birdwatchers and commuters to nearby towns, where agriculture and small local businesses continue to underpin village life.
