Looking across the Golden Valley from the Thames & Severn Canal. Much of Chalford is built on the steep hillsides with no road access. Supplies, and even the post were delivered here until relatively recently by donkey. See http://www.stroudphotos.co.uk/USERIMAGES/Chalford%20donkeyx.jpg which also shows in the distance, the Chalford Arches on the GWR Gloucester - Swindon line.
