About

Rodborough ward lies on the western fringe of Stroud, characterised by its elevated position on the Cotswold escarpment. The area encompasses a mix of residential neighbourhoods, farmland, and significant areas of common land. Its geography slopes down towards the Frome Valley, offering views over the town. The settlement pattern includes the distinct communities of Rodborough and Butterrow Hill, alongside more modern housing developments integrated into the landscape.

A defining aspect is Rodborough Common, a large area of open grassland managed under historic rights. The common is grazed by cattle and supports a specific ecosystem. The ward is also home to the former Rodborough Tabernacle, a notable architectural landmark. Transport routes, including the A46 road, pass through, connecting it to Stroud centre and beyond while influencing the area's structure.
