Dursley

Dursley ward encompasses the historic market town of Dursley and the adjacent village of Cam. The area sits on the western edge of the Cotswolds, with the landscape transitioning from the escarpment slopes to the Vale of Berkeley. Long Street and Parsonage Street form the town's central thoroughfares, lined with a mix of independent shops and traditional architecture. The local economy has historically been linked to manufacturing, with several industrial estates located on the town's periphery.

The ward's topography is defined by Stinchcombe Hill and Cam Long Down, which offer expansive views across the Severn Vale. A network of public footpaths connects these landmarks to the town centre and surrounding countryside. The community is served by primary schools, sports facilities, and the Chantry Centre, which houses the local library. The area maintains a distinct identity separate from the larger Stroud district, with its own civic history and parish governance.
