Frampton on Severn lies in the Severn Vale on the banks of the River Severn in rural Stroud, Gloucestershire, England. The village is famous for one of the longest village greens in the country, surrounded by historic houses and water meadows that regularly flood in winter, and nearby Frampton Pools - former gravel workings now valued as a wildlife-rich reserve supporting wetland birds and plants.
There’s a quietly historic feel, with a listed parish church and the presence of manor houses such as Frampton Court, while the local economy remains largely agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns. Community life tends to revolve around the green, local gatherings and walking or birdwatching on the riverside, making it popular with countryside visitors as well as long-standing locals.
