Jefff,
I did not realise this topic ran on a bit. Sorry I did not respond to your question about war memorials in the old East Dean Grammar School at Cinderford. There was one to the pupils who lost their lives in WW1 and another one for those lost in WW2. They were removed to the theatre of the school/college at Five Acres, Coleford. I can't remember the exact name; they change so often. I think it started off as Forest of Dean Grammar School before it went comprehensive. I believe they are now at the Cinderford Town Council Offices at Cinderford. There was also a memorial which I believe came from Bells Grammar School, Coleford to the memory of the former pupils of that school who were lost in WW2. I do not know of the whereabouts of the latter. I photographed all three when they were at Five Acres. I will scan them and upload them to this site ASAP.
Harry
