Hi,
wrt that "Bruch" Census, I think you can rest assured the Glos Family History Society transcription is the correct one and this is yet another unlikely "error" c/o Ancestry. Of course ideally if you can it's worth lookingup and reading the actual Census form itself and come to your own conclusions based on our own local knowledge of people & place names; altho at least here the place names seem correct and the family being placed in Coleford ie Newland area "fits" the other Census's perfectly. Don't forget if you don't have your own subscription to the likes of Ancestry or FindMyPast, both are available for free via UK public libraries.

Also freely avaiable albeit less humanfriendly is LDS, in addition to agreeing with aforementioned 1841 & 1861 Census' for the Beach household, it also gives the later ones as:
