Does any one know if there is a place called Treyssach, Adlebuch or Porthedich in the Forest of Dean or any where else.
Thank you

Herefordshire ?

Sale by John son of Worgan de Treyssach, to Adam son of Abraham Frere, for 5s., of land lying between Adlebuch and the land of Treyssach, under Adlebuch extending to the lands of Meurich son of Rugge and Mael son of Rugge, upon the hill under John son of Wevelyn's house, and between Porthedich and Treyssach. Witnesses:— William Wevelyn, and others (named). Seal.

Place names with Tre- or Porth- usually occur in Wales or Cornwall.
Tre - Settlement
example - Treworgan nr Llandenny Usk

Porth - Gateway
example - Porth Sgiwed > Portskewett, nr Chepstow

Porthedich :- I wonder if is written as a Welsh name might be heard something like Porth-y-ich (?)
