pSituation

Straddling the A419 London Road, Brimscombe is a small countryside village built around the original shipping Port that brought wealth and riches to the area. Although the Port no longer remains, Brimscombe still holds many remnants of its heritage with converted woollen mills which all run alongside the canal which still flows through the valley, sporadically intercepted by locks. The property is situated within easy reach of the canal which provides a lovely walks along the canal side. Stroud District Council is currently leading restoration of a 6.7 mile length of the Cotswold Canals between Stonehouse and Brimscombe and this is thought to bring huge benefits in terms of economic investment, heritage, leisure and conservation to the area. The village has a local primary school and is in the catchment area for Thomas Keble secondary school. It also offers a village shop, post office, traditional Fish & Chip shop, hair salon and antiques shop. The area has excellent transport links with the A417 providing easy access to Stroud, M5, Cirencester and beyond as well as Stroud and Kemble railway stations for direct trains to London Paddington.
