I've just scanned a postcard of Cinderford High Street I have in an album, it is postmarked 12 July 1912. Although similar to the existing photo it shows a little more of the shop to the right of the picture. As the shop has two sides of meat hanging outside, I can confirm it is definitely a butcher! The name on the sign above the awning reads Cinderford Meat Stores, I can't make out what is written underneath that. There is also a Telephone sign on the wall of the shop, high up, which didn't appear in the previous picture.

I have emailed the picture for addition to the FOD photo archive together with a little info about the telephone system in 1912. I hope this helps.
