we ell the county as a whole is i think west country and i tend to agree that gloucs shouldn't be classed as midlands though i certainly have heard people who live in the county call it that and i'm surprised you haven't mind you i also think it's pushing it a bit to call somewhere like tewkesbury south west i think you could make a decent case for tewkesbury being a midlands town though although as with most of these things it's not that clear cut talk
