Ayleford map -prior thread (General)

Hello,
I am researching my Nelmes line back through Soudley/Bradley Hill, but have come across reference to them living at Ayleford.

William Nelmes died in Ayleford in his 80's in the 1830's, and was buried in Newnham, and his grandson, John, fell at a mine causing an accidental death, in Jan 1870. However, on the inquest the place of Ayleford is given. It is only since I have found the inquest in the paper, that it confirms it is the 'correct' John to my tree as it says he lived in Bradley Hill.

Can anyone help clarify where Ayleford is/was, as i can not find it as a parish or on a map.
Thanks
Daniel

Its not a parish, but just north of Brains Green on the Ruspidge to Blakeney road
