The history of Nailsworth goes back to ancient times. It has always been a small town or village. Nailsworth only began to develop in the 19th century, when mills were built here, and it became a center for the brewing industry. There was service here from 1867 until 1947 but has since been discontinued.

Today Nailsworth is a quiet, charming English town. It holds a farmers' market on the fourth Saturday of every month, and stages an annual Nailsworth Festival.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
