The nearest railway station - in Kemble, is located some 12 miles away, south of Cirencester.
The Church of St Andrew is the Church of England parish church which is dedicated to Saint Andrew. It has been described as "unique in the Cotswolds in that it has a Saxon nave and chancel which have survived almost intact, except for the enlargement of all but one of the original windows, the rebuilding of the east end of the chancel, and the erection of a west tower within the nave". Coln Rogers is also where the surname of Rogers originated from. [2]
