Hi,

I'm after some local knowledge if possible. I grew up in South Wales and my wife in Bristol and we currently live in Cambridgeshire. However, we both want to be closer to our aging families so looking to move back to somewhere in between.

My favourite location is Shirenewton so does anyone have any experience or comments on it?

Many thanks smile

Yep, I'm considering the village near Chepstow.

My queries would be:
- quality of local schools (both children are currently primary age)
- quality of local hostelries. We went in the Tredegar Arms on the weekend which seemed perfectly nice.
- village community.
- any issues that we should know about but are not necessarily common knowledge (eg planning applications for windfarms, etc).

We're moving from a similar sized village which has a great pub, really good community, etc and I don't want to miss that.

Thanks.

Ha, I've been caught out! wink Currently having discussions at home; I prefer Shirenewton and her indoors prefers Sherston. I wanted to canvas PH opinion on both smile
