From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lower Swell is a village and a parish in Gloucestershire. It is located at the River Dikler, one mile from Stow-on-the-Wold. The village has “finest countryside, a tranquil village green and plenty of mellow stone cottages”.

The most widely accepted theory behind the name “Swell” is that it relates to a spring that rises in the grounds of the Abbotswood Estate to the north of the village and is an abbreviated version of “Our Lady’s Well”. The well can still be seen today.
