Farm until recently was a working farm milking 95 cows, growing
40 acres of corn with a small number of beef cattle. Having
always had a fascination for trees it was decided to put the
farm into forestry. In the autumn/winter of 1998/99 Nebrow Hill
Oak Wood was created, 110,000 trees were planted mainly hardwoods:
oak, ash, walnut, sycamore. A farm track gives good access to
walk or cycle through this peaceful part of the Severn vale. |

The cottages are only a five-minute walk away from the banks
of the Severn Estuary, with its stunning walks and breathtaking
sunsets. The Severn, boasting the second highest rise and fall
in tidal levels in the world, beaten only by the bay of Funday
in Nova Scotia, spawns the famous 'Severn Bore'. A tidal wave
that travels 20 miles upstream reaching heights of about 6-8
ft at its peak. Coarse fishing is available in Frampton on Severn
on various canels and lakes. Trout fishing may be available
(100yds from the cottages) ring for details. Cycle Hire, Snooker
and Clay Pigeon shooting can also be arranged on the premises.

the gossip of all England she became a legend before passing
