EDITORS COMMENTS
Speech House, nestled in the heart of the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire, England, is a historic gem that transports visitors back in time. Built during the reign of Charles II in the late 17th century, this unique building served as one of the Forest Courts, where law was held ten times a year. The name "Speech House" derives from the tradition of allowing free speech during these court sessions, a significant departure from the usual strict court protocols of the time. The ivy-covered walls of this magnificent building have witnessed centuries of history, and its grand architecture speaks volumes about the opulence and grandeur of the Forest Courts. The intricate details of the stonework, the ornate carvings, and the elegant windows are a testament to the craftsmanship of the era. As you explore the grounds of Speech House, you may stumble upon remnants of the past, such as the old well and the ancient yew tree, which are believed to be over 1,000 years old. The surrounding forest adds to the mystique of this enchanting place, making it a popular destination for history buffs, nature lovers, and those seeking a glimpse into the past. The Speech House Inn, located nearby, offers a cozy respite for weary travelers. The building, which dates back to the 1930s, is a charming contrast to the ancient Speech House, and the motorbikes that occasionally park outside are a reminder that this historic site is very much alive and well in the present day. A visit to Speech House is an unforgettable experience, offering a unique blend of history, natural beauty, and modern charm. Whether you're exploring the ruins of the old courtroom, taking a leisurely stroll through the forest, or enjoying a hearty meal at the inn, you're sure to leave with a newfound appreciation for the rich history of this remarkable place.
