Tidenham cottages (General)
I'm trying to find out where Club Cottage and Maple Cottages Tidenham were and if they are still there. Can anyone help please? I've looked on maps and googled but haven't found anything.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply. Maple Cottages is from 1851 census Tidenham and Club Cottage is 1891 census Tidenham.

Judging by the 1851 Census route - Maple Cottages are down in what is today Tutshill / Bishton near Powder House Farm and Tutshill School and St Lukes Church - & Wirewoods House / Manor
Powder House Farm standing east of the road between Tutshill and Woodcroft was one of the farm-houses on the Tidenham manor estate in 1769 (fn. 56) and was a stone house with a thatched roof in 1813. (fn. 57) At least one cottage had been built on the common east of the road at Woodcroft by 1712, (fn. 58) and by 1815 there was a small settlement of six or seven cottages there. (fn. 59)

Club Cottages are also near here in the 1891 - in fact next to the School in Tutshill
number of male and female friendly societies were started in the parish in the 1830s and 1840s, (fn. 30) and there was a social club and institute at Tutshill by 1889

Thanks so much. I'm visiting the area soon and find the places a bit confusing as it seems Tidenham is made up of several hamlets.

This might help with the general area , although I suspect your cottages are no more.
NP16 7BU is in the right sort of area if you are using GPS to get here

Have noticed there's Mopla Cottages in this area in Coleford Rd. Wondering if this is the Maple Cottages I'm looking for. The names are so similar.
