Description

Staunton is a village that lies close to the village of Corse. Staunton is eight miles north of the city of Gloucester. To the south-west of Staunton is the River Leadon. It is on the A417 road.

Staunton used to lie in the county of Worcestershire. Originally Staunton was included in the "forest of Corse", the woodland in 1086 being a league long and half a league in breadth. In 1347, Robert de Staunton as lord of the manor, obtained a grant of a Wednesday market at Staunton and a fair for four days at the feast of St James, but by the 17th century the earlier prosperity of Staunton had disappeared. At the end of the 18th century cider and perry were produced in large quantities at Staunton, but because the soil produced good crops of wheat, beans and barley, the cidermaking industry died out.
