Can anyone tell me where Edingwall is/was. It was given as the residence of Mary Anne White when she was baptised at Newland in 1803. (Record ID 264906).

Maybe Edenwall (Upper or Lower) near Coalway Lane End?

Many thanks Mike,
Great link - have now bookmarked it for future reference.

This seems to be the place - nr Coalway Lane End makes sense to me regarding the family I'm researching. Presumably Edingwall was the old spelling will have to look into this at Gloucester archive next time I am there.

Glad to confirm that you're in the right place. My father was born at Edenwall, Coalway Lane End and we had family still there in the 1950s. Basically it runs from the Coalway cross roads towards Milkwall and ends as the road drops down to Palmer's Flat. It is referred to by that name in Censuses from 1881 forward to 1911. You're probably aware that you sometimes have to search both England and Wales Census records as the area seemed to drift from one to the other for Census purposes. There was an Edenwall Farm (now part of the Bell's Golf Club although the farmhouse is a holiday let).

It is on the road out of Coleford just past Formwood! I think it is also called Milkwall? (Getting old and memory for names fading lol!)

I think you are on the wrong road. The road past Formwood, which no longer exists, is know as Tufthorn Avenue and is Milkwall.
The road leading from the crossroads at Coalway to Palmers Flat is known as Edenwall. This is marked clearly on current Google Maps.

Edenwall Road runs from Tufthorn Avenue down to Milkwall football club I think Winky might be thinking of this Edenwall. There is a public footpath that runs from this Edenwall Rd up and over Bells golf Course and what was Edenwall farm on the Coalway Road bringing you out at Edenwall at the top of Upper Palmers Flat and Coalway by Gibsons shop. Hope this is of some help.
