Hi all,
the placename is Ayleford, it's about 1/2 mile south of Lower Soudley on the road to Newnham, still on Soudley Brook. If more information is required then I suggest read this prior thread
http://forum.forest-of-dean.net/index.php?id=37524
Within that thread Slowhands refers to an earlier thread, unfortunately the posted link is now defunct, I think this is the thread he refers to

The area was particularly known for it's iron works in the earlier 1800s, the Brook being essential to these processes, plus presumably the nearby iron ore deposits at Shakemantle(Ruspidge). Modern maps still show Forge House & Forge Grove, for example. The "economic history of Newnham" describes Ayleford, see here under "Mills & Ironworks"
