As you know the Nash family lived for some years at Stock Farm, Clearwell. I don't know any detail but archeological excavations were performed there and are documented by H. Atkinson in Volume 2, Page 28 of the FoD Local History Society's Journal the "New Regard".
Some Journal editions may be read in FoD Public libraries eg Cinderford, or individual article reprints are available from the Society.

"Most of the houses that formed Clearwell village in 1608 were replaced by plain stone cottages in the late 18th century and the 19th, but several older farmhouses survive. At Stank Farm, north of Lower Cross, a small 17th-century house with a prominent central porch was extended to the north in the 19th century. The former Stock Farm (in 1992 comprising Tudor Cottage and Tudor Farmhouse Hotel) in the east street is an L-shaped 17th-century house with an 18th-century wing added on the east."
