It's about 30 miles away.

They've not long been in that stadium. I went to FGR vs Bristol Rovers last year and the area couldn't cope with the extra ground.

Veggie burgers only too....

A good bit further, seeing as the other side of Stroud....seems just like the sort of thing we need though.

I suspect you're unlikely to be getting a game this season though 4D....so presence at Beversbrook, not required.

I wonder if Beversbrook is so called because, there usd to be a brook with beavers there  :hmmm:

Something for you to find out.

Irrelevant as that's nowhere near Nailsworth, it's about a 15/20 minute drive. If they move there effectively they'll be moving to Stonehouse/Whitminster!

Beversbrook manor,  Reg.

So was Beverbrook manor named after a person or place?  Beavers used to be common in Britain, but like the wolf and boar, hunted to extinction. You still get place names though which refer to long gone wildlife.

I saw a few beavers in the brunel rooms once upon a time..
