Forest of Dean Brass Bands (General)

The Bands were very much part of Forest social life. Often associated with a colliery, church or the Buffs ( R.A.O.B. ). I have pictures of the Excelsior, Berry Hill , Lydbrook and Cinderford bands, but I cannot lay my hands on Blakeney / Two Bridges .....

however I think this may be them ...
