Somerford Keynes

Somerford Keynes (/ˌsʌmərfʊd ˈkaɪnz/ SUM-ər-fuud KYNZE; grid reference SU019952) is a village and civil parish in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, close to the River Thames and about 5 miles (8 km) from its source.

These could belong to a representation of the Roman Capitoline triad (the gods Jupiter, Juno and Minerva), which again points to a formal religious presence.

[1][2] The village first appears in writing in AD 685, in a charter confirming a gift of 40 hides of land by King Ethelred's nephew Bertwald to St Aldhelm, first abbot of Malmesbury.

The Thames Path, a long-distance footpath, passes through the parish, which lies in the western section of the Cotswold Water Park.

Elemental Sculpture Park is an annual seasonal art exhibition in Somerford Keynes, which in 2016 featured about 140 works by 50 sculptors.
