Truculent Manc popstar and Britpop enfant terrible Liam Gallagher was apparently spotted in Bisley recently, though we can rest easy - it seems he has moved to the area, but to Selsley, which, for non-locals, is four or five miles away near Stroud. Far enough. (For older villagers, Gallagher was the lead singer of the 1990s Beatles tribute act and musical beat combo, Oasis, m'lud, best known for the feud between Liam and his guitarist brother Noel and a few admittedly good songs.) The rumour is Liam is now renting Stanley Park, which was built in the 1800s for Sir Samuel Stephens Marling - the cloth magnate and Liberal MP for Stroud who lent his name to the boys' grammar school in the town.
The main reason for sharing this non-story though is to link to this interesting site showing the state the place was in in 2014, and, conversely, what it's like now. Some renovation job, that!
