Mendips

The Western Forest will be made up of new and existing woodlands across Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Somerset, the Cotswolds and the Mendips as well as in urban areas such as Bristol, Swindon and Gloucester.

A Mendips pub has become home to a 26-foot snowman made of wine bottles this festive season.

It has led to many people moving from London to the Mendips.

Radstock is a town, nestled on the edge of the Mendips, close to beautiful countryside - a place where one local told me "stabbings just don't happen here".

While that orphanage may have inspired the title, the song "Strawberry Fields Forever," however, was set in John's childhood, during his time at the Mendips, the house he shared with his Aunt Mimi for 15 years.
