Where is Yorkley? |
|
| |
Yorkley is situated
approximately 2½ miles North of Lydney and just under 8 miles South of
Cinderford on the Southern edge of the glorious Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire,
with a population of about 1160. |
|
|
|
|
| |
The village sits astride a hill some 600 feet above sea
level, giving panoramic views of the mighty River Severn and the
Cotswold Hills to the South-East, South & South-West from one side,
and the hills of the Brecon Beacons above Abergavenny to the East, some 28
miles in the distance. |
|
|
To the north the village is bounded
by forest, and to the south by agricultural land. |
