Wheatenhurst is still there :-) < well it was yesterday afternoon for sure >

The name 'Wheatenhurst' was officially changed to Whitminster in 1945, but it is still used by the houses near the Canals, whilst Whitminster is the larger village on the A38.

Its the name of the registration district that would have included Whitminster and surrounding villages before reaching Stroud, Dursley or Gloucester districts...
