Anyone have knowledge of the Phelps family who lived at Bradley House?
Im seeking information about the history of the property and they may have more information.
I am aware that they lived there after returning from abroad and have long since gone.

Bradley House?

Is that what was once Bradley Court north of Mitcheldean?

We appreciate your help, thank you, Andy and Sue

There's a prior thread at https://forest-of-dean.net/fodmembers/index.php?id=16320 which may be of interest.

There's a few other mentions in the forum but I haven't checked all of them. Just search for "Bradley House" (include the quotation marks).

Hi - I know they had a daughter, Jane, who went to a boarding school in Winterbourne near Bristol. I was at school with her and my Great Nan lived in Soudley so we used to meet up if I was staying with my Nan.
The school was called The Collegiate School for girls and was run by a Mr Rex & Mrs Susie Hopes.
Not sure if this is helpful at all, but thought I'd send it through to you.
Best wishes
Andrea (Allez)

Two Bridges Tump, Ayelford (by Slowhands)

By the brook Bradley House was presumably built for Samuel Hewlett, an ironfonder who was the occupant in 1834. (fn65). To the south are two mid 19th century houses - one, Ayleford House, dated 1866. Downstream, nearer the hamlet of Aylofrd, a fow of four cottages north-west of Two Bridgdes, owned by Samuel Hewlett in 1834 (fn66) was partly derelict in 1992
