Location

The dispersed village of Gorsley, straddles the Hereford/Gloucestershire border, and enjoys first class access to the M50 motorway. One of the outstanding features of the village is the excellent range of facilities and amenities which are on offer. In addition to its superb communication links, it has a noted historic primary school, opened earlier than many in 1821. Not far away is the thriving Baptist chapel of 1852 and the Church of England Christ Church of 1892. The village hall sees activities including keep fit and Pilate classes, gardening club, karate, yoga. Also very popular is the Roadmaker pub, owned and ran by four Ex-British army Ghurka soldiers, famous for the currys and Ghurka cuisine, renowned for its warm welcome and exceptional food.

Yet more evidence of a strong community spirit is the community shop and post office, opened in August 2018, and run by volunteers for the benefit of the whole village. Open 6 days a week, adjacent to the Baptist church, there is a coffee house, shop and post office with much local produce, news agent, play park orchard and recreation area. Yet more village fun is had at the flower, produce arts and crafts show, this year celebrating 100 years since the first flower show in 1925. All together a thriving village which is made strong by the involvement of so many.
