Oakridge Lynch is a small, quietly attractive village in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, within the district of Stroud, Gloucestershire, England. It sits tucked into the gentle folds of the Cotswold hills and is characterised by rolling farmland, wooded valleys and the honey‑coloured limestone cottages and narrow lanes that make the area popular with walkers and photographers.
Historically the settlement shares the wider Stroud valleys’ links with the wool and cloth industries, and many buildings retain a strong sense of continuity with that rural past. Today the local economy is a mix of agriculture, small enterprises and people who commute to nearby towns, while village life tends to focus on community events and conservation of the landscape that draws visitors to the Cotswolds.
