I'll need to check some old maps , however the "feel" of the Census is in the area of the Coleford Rd / Brierley / Ruardean Hill.....

1871 East Dean District 11 enumerated commencing John Vaughan's Pool ( nr Churchway) in the east before leading to the East Slade Works /Pits

So which John Vaughan ???

So its Ruardean Hill /Brierley / Herbert Lodge area for sure !
