Ashley Road is one of the more appealing roads on the estate, being found slightly higher up on the hill and Savoy House enjoys very pretty views as a result. Cheltenham is famed as one of the most complete Regency towns in England and historically the original and most fashionable spa. Less than a hundred miles from London it nestles beautifully between the Cotswold Hills and the Wye Valley, and is home to numerous prestigious schools including Cheltenham College, Cheltenham Ladies College, Dean Close and Pates Grammar which recently topped the national GCSE schools league table.

  • The Battledown Brickworks
    Reprinted from: Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Journal for 2002 pages 4-18 THE BATTLEDOWN BRICKWORKS David A. O'Connor Introduction Brickmaking is as old as civilisation itself and Babylonian bricks stamped with the names of kings as far back as 2500 BC have been found. The Romans were past masters in making bricks and tiles and they brought the skills to Britain in 44 AD. However, when the legions left for Rome, these skills were somehow lost by the Britons, who reverted to building their homes with wood, stone, wattle and daub. In the 9th Century, when King Alfred the Great came to the throne, he imported all manner of foreign artisans into the kingdom to rebuild the skills required for a thriving state. Among them were brick and tile-makers. The historian Samuel Rudder asserted in 1779 that it was Alfred, better known for burning cakes, who selected Cheltenham as a suitable place for burning bricks (1). However that may be, Cheltenham was certainly a geologically suitable place. Lower Lias clay is found throughout the district, and in particular on the slopes of Battledown, a hill rising to nearly 500 feet located in Charlton Kings on the north-east edge of Cheltenham. Such clays are normally blue in colour, though near the surface they may be yellow. In many parts superficial deposits of both gravel and sand lie on this clay, but brickmaking at Battledown was especially favoured in that there the sand lay directly on the clay. The yellow surface clays are best mixed with sand and most of the old brickworks in this area employed this method.

What the experience indicated was the power of the weather and how climate change can suddenly and cruelly blow away our daily routine and create social and economic chaos. Had electricity supply been disrupted there was talk of evacuating the Severn Vale. The scale and duration of flooding was not sufficient to justify this, but a sustained loss of power would create very substantial disruption indeed and affect every aspect of our lives. The best that we can hope for in meeting the challenge of climate change, while at the same time developing more benign forms of energy, is a gradual transition that, with proper resource allocation and good planning, will allow some prospect for success.
