Innsworth – did you know?

Interestingly, Innsworth was formerly best known for RAF Innsworth, the home of RAF Personnel and Training Command until 2008, when it moved to RAF High Wycombe.
Notably, the village now contains Imjin Barracks, the home of the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (ARRC), which moved from Germany in 2010.
What’s more, many of the housing association homes in Innsworth were either prefabricated or rapidly built ‘no fines’ structures from the mid- to late-1940s, originally intended to last only two decades.
Finally, all roads in the post-war housing development are named after birds, such as Bullfinch Way, Rookery Road and Swallow Crescent.
Interestingly, the village was originally part of the parish of Longlevens, which was created in 1935 from the parishes of Wotton St. Mary Without, Barnwood, Hucclecote and Churchdown; it was renamed Innsworth in 1967.
Notably, Innsworth is the largest community within the Gloucester and Cheltenham Green Belt, with a population of 2,468 at the 2011 census.
What’s more, the village used to have a local pub called The Bullfinch, known locally as ‘The Bully’, which was closed in late 2004 and demolished in 2010/2011.
Finally, the old sign for The Bullfinch pub can still be found at the top of Bullfinch Way and its junction with Innsworth Lane.
Interestingly, Innsworth had its own Community Hall built on Rookery Road next to the Junior School after many years of campaigning.
Notably, the village was historically split into two halves: the military housing side ending at Ward Avenue and Swallow Crescent, and the Thompson Way side separated again by Swallow Crescent.
