Jovial Colliers Inn Nailbridge / Ruardean Woodside (General)

There was, indeed, a Jovial Colliers pub in Morse Road (the road from Nailbridge to Ruardean). Besides the references already noted, the Lloyd George survey of land values also lists it. Using the land values survey maps and comparing to present day maps, I was able to pinpoint the building. The building is now three cottages - post code GL17 9AT. Confirmation of the fact came when I found the three cottages are known today as 'Jovial Cottages'.

This is the Jovial Colliers pub that George Wilkes (of bear killing fame) lived at. Not the one on Ruardean Woodside.
