 The ancient hamlet of Pitchcombe, with a population of approximately 300, nestles in the Painswick valley between Stroud and Painswick . The parish straddles the Wick stream, which once provided the energy for the local woollen mills.
Pitchcombe Church was built in 1819 and stands on the site of a former Church known as the Pitchcombe Cradle which was built in 1376. The present church bell is thought to date from somewhere between 1350 and 1380.
