OFFICIAL ROAST REPORT
We're sorry. Actually, no we're not.
Your entire claim to fame is the Müller factory churning out yogurt while Forest Green Rovers builds wooden stadiums nearby. You're literally just the industrial estate that Nailsworth's pretentious football club uses as a postal address. Even your bricks ended up in Cape Town because they were trying to escape.
You're home to the world's first vegan football club that doesn't even play in your town, while your residents brag about Tudor Tandoori takeaway. Dale Vince spends millions on organic grass and solar-powered lawn mowers, but your idea of fine dining is fish and chips from the high street. The cognitive dissonance is staggering.
You market yourself as 'doorstep to gorgeous countryside' when you're actually a glorified motorway junction with delusions of grandeur. Your biggest excitement is the Stroudwater Canal quietly running through town like it's embarrassed to be there. St Cyr's Church gets photographed because literally nothing else is worth the film.
Your peak historical moment was when some lord fled abroad after being implicated in regicide, only to return for 'a rose per annum.' Since then you've peaked at brick-making and building housing estates near the M5. That 202-foot chimney they demolished in 1968 was probably your last monument to actual ambition.
