Drybrook - Park end walk (General)
This "address" shows on the 1841 census for Thomas Taylor and family.
(HO 107 /364/12)
Local and Glous council as well as the Heritage Center have no idea where this is/was.
Any of you Gurus got any ideas?
TIA
Bernie

A little strange that this is so unrecognisable to others, esp as its only 3 or 4 miles from the Heritage Centre.
This Drybrook is the "Little Drybrook" near Ellwood Lodge; just north west of Bream, towards Marsh Lane and Clements End. Take the road from Bream Tump out towards Sling, around the Mill Hill bends, half way to Sling - then head north into the Forest and you'll find the small settlement..

The Walks and Inclosures were divisions of the Forest.

Thanks for that - problem solved :-)
Thomas Taylor was baptised in Newent so I was concentrating on Drybrook.
Father-in-law Arthur Taylor (gt gt Grandson of Thomas) lives in Parkend so he is now off doing some field reseach !!
A beer on the slate for you at the Rising Sun, Bream.
Cheers
