Nailsworth

Nailsworth is a town nestled where three valleys meet along the Nailsworth Stream, surrounded by green hills and traditional Cotswold stone buildings. The streets and structures show the architectural character built and maintained over centuries of settlement.

The town grew during the 18th century as an industrial center, with numerous water-powered mills producing cloth and processing wool along the stream. These mills shaped the local economy and settlement pattern for generations.

The monthly farmers' market draws together local producers and shoppers for regional specialties, fresh produce, and handmade goods from across the area.

The town is easily reached via the A46 road, with regular bus services connecting to Bath and Bristol for day visits. Local shops, cafes, and public spaces are spread throughout the compact center and surrounding areas.

The local football club Forest Green Rovers is the first certified carbon-neutral team in professional English football. The club applies environmental practices to professional sport in an unexpected way.
