On the census it states Two Bridges Blakeney Glos, is Two bridges the name of a place or house ?
Where would I need to look for the parish as I can't find reference to two bridges on any maps..

If you go to the Find a Location link in the top menu bar of this page and then select the Ordnance Survey Map. Type in 'Two Bridges' in the search box and it will show you the location of the place.
Also, if you type in 'Two Bridges' in the forums search box you will find a thread with further information.

If you take the road from Soudley to Blakeney, about halfway between the two is a small rough road off to the left which will take you to the area known as Two Bridges. You can see it clearly on Google Earth if you put in "2 Bridges, Blakeney, GL15 4AF"
Hope this helps.
