Stroud junior School

This sign saying "Danger children at Play" struck me a rather amusing and beyond the wall can be seen a snippet of Stroud.

Selsley Common from Rodborough

Taken from somewhat undulating Gastrells School playing fields looking due west. This ridge is very popular with paragliders, hang-gliders, gliders and model gliders, can get a bit busy up there!

Dudbridge Cycle Track

Former Midland Railway line linking Nailsworth and Stonehouse now a cycle track. The bridge is where the B4066 climbs towards Selsley.

Stroud view

General view of Stroud. The clump of buildings in the centre of the picture belong to Archway School. The pair of white lines looking like a giant rugby goal are chimney stacks belonging to the Millikan factory, a wool cloth mill. The hill in the background is Rodborough Hill.

Dudbridge Cycle Track

The railway line ran between Dudbridge and Stroud and is viewed from the Dudbridge End. Nowadays it's the best made bit of cycle track in Stroud, it's a pity the access is by a flight of stairs. The road bridge carries traffic between Dudbridge Hill and Dudbridge.
