Welcome to Starveall

Starveall is a small village located in the county of Gloucestershire, England. The village is situated on the edge of the Cotswold Hills and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The name Starveall is believed to have originated from the Old English words "stearf" and "healh," which mean "barren hill." The village has a rich history dating back to the Roman times, and there are several ancient landmarks and buildings in the area.

One of the most notable landmarks in Starveall is the Iron Age hillfort known as Uley Bury. The hillfort is located on a steep hill overlooking the village and is believed to have been built around 300 BC. The fortifications consist of a series of ditches and ramparts, and there are several entrances to the site. Uley Bury is a popular destination for hikers and history enthusiasts, and it offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

Another interesting feature of Starveall is the St. James Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is built in the Norman style and features a beautiful stone tower and several stained glass windows. The church is still in use today and is a popular venue for weddings and other events. Overall, Starveall is a charming village with a rich history and plenty of natural beauty to explore.
