Lypiatt

Lypiatt is a small village in Gloucestershire, England, approximately 4 miles east of Stroud. The parish is united administratively with the adjoining parish of Bisley and the two are usually referred to as Bisley-with-Lypiatt.

The parish is noted for two fine historic houses: Lypiatt Park, of medieval origins, home of the late Modernist sculptor Lynn Chadwick; and a neo-Classical manor house, Nether Lypiatt Manor, formerly the home of Violet Gordon-Woodhouse and Prince and Princess Michael of Kent.
