Does anybody know what year Westbury Workhouse closed down and if there are any records for inmates, particularly after 1901.

If the Westbury Workhouse "served" these parishes:
County of Gloucester: Abinghall, Awre (2), Blaisdon, Bulley, Churcham, Flaxley, Huntley, Littledean, Longhope (2), Minsterworth, Mitcheldean, Newnham (2), Westbury (3).
Later Addition: Hinders Lane and Dockham (1858-84), then,
what workhouse "served" the parishes in West Dean, particularly Newland?

depending on the dates then
most likely the Monmouth Workhouse

and some in the north of "West Dean" were no doubt served by the
"Ross Union" Workhouse ( or the Ruardean parish workhouse)....

and those over near Tintern / Chapel Hill were served by Chepstow
