Searching the net shows a few brief mentions of the alley c1851 Census but no more. However the earliest map of Newent on the Old Maps site is from 1883 and as Mike says it doesn't show the Alley by name. www.old-maps.co.uk.
That said I've no doubt that Mike is correct, as-ever local knowledge being priceless.

Perhaps the Newent Local History Society can help you out further ?

Or maybe try the Heritage Exhibition in the old Market House on Broad Street, this link contains their phone number and opening times. http://www.newent-online.co.uk/attractions/
