Edge is a village in Gloucestershire, amongst the Cotswolds. It stands a little to the west of Painswick (to whose civil parish it has been allocated), on a hill-edge marking the western extent of the Cotswolds, before the land drops down to the Vale of Gloucester. It is set around a village green.
The parish church is St John the Baptist, which is within the Diocese of Gloucester.[1]
Society
The Edge Village Fete takes place each year on the green and in the village hall. The village hall also hosts functions throughout the year.
