Twyning is a small riverside village and civil parish in the borough of Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, England, set along the banks of the River Avon. Its location on the water gives the village a strong riverside character - boats, waterside inns and riverside walks are part of everyday life, and the low-lying floodplain is a notable feature of the local landscape.
Historically the settlement grew from agriculture and river trade and still keeps a number of older buildings and village traditions, while today it supports small local amenities and independent businesses and serves as a quiet base for people working in nearby towns such as Gloucester and Cheltenham. The mix of wildlife-rich floodplain, views across the Severn Vale towards the Cotswolds and an active community give Twyning a gently rural, waterside appeal.
