Edit:

Goatswood wasn't created by Lovecraft, but by Ramsey Campbell. It is probably the most detailed mythos setting outside of Lovecraft Country itself.

The River Severn is an actual river in Wales and western England. Campbell's stories mention various real-world locales, including the Cotswold Hills, Berkeley, and the A38 road. These references place "Campbell Country" in the southern part of Gloucestershire, roughly between the cities of Gloucester and Bristol. This area is more correctly referred to as the Vale of Berkeley or the Severn Estuary; the real-world Severn Valley refers to an area around fifty miles (80 km) further north.

Note that I'm just quoting the Wikipedia article for Goatswood:

Wow, thank you much for the info! I didn't realize Campbell used various real-world locations. That's cool!. This should help in me developing Goatswood for my story.
