Just to extend things at Longhope as far as 1946,

BNA Gloucester Citizen – Thursday 21 March 1946,

East Dean R.D.C, nominations,
Longhope (two seats): Oswald Cadogan BRADLEY, baker and confectioner……….

And two entries from the National Probate Calendar which might be of interest,

National Probate Calendar 1939,

BRADLEY William Armstrong of Sunnyside Little London Longhope Gloucestershire died 15 April 1939 Probate Gloucester 15 June to Annie Elizabeth Bradley widow Oswald Cadogan Bradley baker and Percy Windham Probert post office overseer.
Effects £3853 19s 8d.

National Probate Calendar 1930,

GREEN Joseph of Huntley Gloucestershire died 11 January 1930 Probate Gloucester 28 May to Charles Henry Green and Francis Luther Green bakers and grocers.
Effects £3132 12s 3d.

£3132 might be upwards of £110,000 in today’s terms but it is difficult to assess what this really means – I’m not sure that sum would get you much of a house in Huntley now.
