Wick is a small village located in the county of Gloucestershire, England. Situated in the Cotswolds, Wick is nestled in a picturesque rural setting, surrounded by rolling hills and lush green countryside. The village is part of the Tewkesbury Borough and lies approximately 8 miles northeast of the town of Tewkesbury.

With a population of around 500 residents, Wick maintains a close-knit community atmosphere. The village is characterized by its charming traditional Cotswold stone houses, which give it a timeless and quintessentially English feel. The local church, St. Bartholomew's, stands proudly at the heart of the village and is a notable architectural landmark.

Wick offers a range of amenities to its residents, including a primary school, village hall, and a post office. The village also has a pub, the Royal Oak, which serves as a central gathering place for locals and visitors alike.

Field adjoining Beach Lane Beach is one of those villages near Bath which are tucked away down winding lanes and for most people only a name on a signpost.  It is surrounded by farmland, some of which can be seen here.  This is one of the few viewpoints in this square from the public highway; most road passing through it has high hedges or (going to the former quarry) is access only.

Wick Quarry The water in this filled quarry site is 200ft deep. There have been proposals to turn it into a water park but the quarry site needs a lot of safety work and access is difficult. Quarrying for aggregates still continue here
