The town lies on border with Worcestershire, identified largely by the Carrant Brook.

The region now known as Gloucestershire was originally inhabited by Brythonic peoples in the Iron Age and Roman periods.

The city of Caerloyw was one centre and Cirencester may have continued as a tribal centre as well.
