Pucklechurch is a small village and civil parish in South Gloucestershire, England, sitting on the eastern edge of the suburbs of Bristol and close to the rolling countryside that leads towards the Cotswolds. It has a compact village centre surrounded by farmland and ribbon development, making it popular with commuters who work in Bristol and Bath while enjoying a rural feel and easy road links to the wider West Country.
The village has deep roots, with a name of Old English origin and a long local history reflected in its parish church and surviving earthworks and lanes. Today Pucklechurch combines a quiet residential character with a strong local community, a handful of shops and pubs, and nearby light industrial and business parks that provide local employment while farming still shapes the landscape and social life. Annual village events and conservation-minded residents help maintain its village identity amid suburban pressures.
