About

Glemsford is situated along the River Glem, with its historic core focused on the wool trade. The landscape here includes the gentle slopes of the Glem valley and areas of mixed farmland. The parish church of St Mary the Virgin stands on a hill, a landmark with its distinctive flushwork and hammerbeam roof. The area retains a network of older lanes connecting scattered farms and hamlets.

Lawshall lies to the northeast, its settlement pattern more dispersed with a small central village. The terrain is characterised by rolling arable fields and pockets of woodland. A notable local feature is the Lawshall Hall estate, with its parkland and historic moated site. The area is crossed by several public footpaths, including parts of the Stour Valley Path, linking its rural communities.
