About Houndscroft
Houndscroft rests upon the Cotswold escarpment, a place where the ancient stone of England seems to exhale a quiet breath. It lies 2.5 km north-west of Minchinhampton (from Minchinhampton: bearing 315°T, OS grid SO 854 025), and is situated west-north-west of Bownham village. The low, grey-stone houses of Houndscroft cluster with a comforting solidity, their roofs often a pleasing patchwork of weathered slate and tile, catching the soft, diffused light that often graces this part of Gloucestershire. Fields, a rich tapestry of greens and ochres depending on the season, roll away from the village, their boundaries delineated by ancient hedgerows that whisper tales of centuries past. The air here carries a faint, earthy scent, a mingling of damp soil and distant sheep, a perfume of the land itself.
