Just 12km north-east of Bristol city centre, the neighbouring villages of Frampton Cotterell and Coalpit Heath have fascinating histories.
Frampton Cotterell once had a hat factory, whilst Coalpit Heath was well known for its coal mining, as the name suggests.
These days, both villages combine the old and the new, with houses in high demand due to close proximity to the Cotswolds, Bristol and good links to the motorway.
Here are ten photos of why Frampton Cotterell and Coalpit Heath are such popular villages with plenty to offer.
