From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stroud is a market town and civil parish in the centre of Gloucestershire, England. It is the main town in Stroud District.

In March 2021 The Sunday Times named Stroud the best place to live in the UK, citing the town’s abundance of green spaces, independent spirit, and school quality.

Stroud is known for its involvement in the Industrial Revolution. It was a cloth town: woollen mills were powered by the small rivers which flow through the five valleys, and supplied from Cotswold sheep which grazed on the hills above. Particularly noteworthy was the production of military uniforms in the colour Stroudwater Scarlet. Stroud became known for its production of broadcloth, which was widely known as “Stroud cloth” and traded around the world.
