Hi Tony,
my VERY quick search of the NA site didn't find the Will, but there are a lot of Wm Cookes to search thro and too litle time here, sorry. However, on the expectation that such a Will would probably be held by Gloucester Archives, I've now searched their site. If you've not tried it before I recommend you browsing their Genealogical database as link below.
This shows a few hits for William Cooke of Bream abt 1713 including a Will. You can order copies from Gloster Archives via that site.

Alternatively I guess you can view the actual Will if you visit in person. I've never been to the Archives, but many other forum-users have and will hopefully advise. I'm thinking Gloster Archives here, but I think the same also applies to the National Archives at London.
