Searching the net for the above phrase gave this website about the Burgham family, it very helpfully collects together Burgham households all around the Forest.

It shows an Alfred Burgham born abt 1837 as butcher in Lydbrook in 1871 & 1881 Census. Could this be an ancestor of the Cinderford butcher ?.

Meanwhile this Burgham family site also shows perhaps all UK Burghams in the 1901 Census (spelt Burgham that is):

"Arthur Burgham 21 Cinderford Glos Gloucestershire East Dean Butchers Assistant b. 1880"

Who I think is perhaps the eventual proprietor of the aforementioned Cinderford shop.
Although the above site lists seven Burghams in Cinderford, it doesn't present them as households. It refers to a separate site for Burgams, which shows none in Cinderford.

The Ancestry free search page suggests this Arthur is the same as listed in Slowhands' post above wrt 1881 & 1891 Census.
I cannot find him in the 1911 (so much like his brother Henry in that respect !, had they gone off to War albeit it rather early). I've searched best I can without success...
