Almondsbury is a large village near junction 16 of the M5 motorway, in South Gloucestershire, England. The Village is split by a steep hill, part of the escarpment overlooking the Severn floodplain. At the bottom of the hill is Lower Almondsbury where a pub and hotel, The Bowl Inn, is situated. South Wales, the Forest of Dean, The River Severn and both Severn Bridges are visible from the higher parts of the village.
The pub takes its name from the bowl shape of the land surrounding the estuary. Parts of this whitewashed-stone inn were originally the three cottages erected in 1146 to house the monks building the adjacent church of St Mary The Virgin. The present building became a licensed inn in 1550.
Also at the bottom of the hill is the local church, dedicated to Saint Mary the Virgin.
