North-west of Bream a few, mainly industrial, buildings were put up from the 1840s in the
Oakwood valley near an ancient corn mill in a detached part of Newland parish. (fn. 82)
Further west at Clements End, near the south-western boundary of the Forest, there were
several groups of scattered cottages by 1787. (fn. 83)
One group, in the areas known in the 1820s as Clements Tump and Cleverend Green, (fn. 84)
comprised six cottages in 1834 (fn. 85) and was represented by the 16 houses recorded
at 'Elwall in 1851. (fn. 86) It included a nonconformist chapel from 1869.
