This large village lies in the Forest of Dean
and developed during the Middle Ages through
the working of locally mined iron ore.
Later it prospered thanks to beer making.
It still retains much of its original
character and proudly boasts a 14th century
church (one of the widest in England), some
half-timbered cottages and an 18th century
town hall.
One of its public houses, The George Inn,
dates to the 17th century.
