About

Kemble ward is a rural area in the eastern Cotswolds, centred around the village of Kemble. The landscape is characterised by open farmland and the headwaters of the River Thames, which rise just south of the village at Thames Head. The economy has historical ties to the railway, with Kemble station serving as a significant junction on the main line between Swindon and Gloucester.

The ward includes several smaller settlements like Ewen and Poole Keynes, which contribute to its dispersed, parish-based community structure. A notable local feature is the presence of RAF Fairford, located just outside the ward boundary, which influences the area. The land use is predominantly agricultural, with large fields defined by traditional dry stone walls, reflecting the broader Cotswold character.
