<p><em>Part at least of the later parish of Newland was settled and cultivated in the Anglo-Saxon period when there was a manor called Wyegate, probably based on Wyegate Green above the valley of Mork brook. Before 1086, however, Wyegate was taken out of cultivation and included in the royal demesne land of the Forest.</em> </p>

<em><br />
 Wyegate Green, on the south boundary high above the Mork valley, was apparently the site of an Anglo-Saxon settlement that was added to the Forest waste in the late 11th century. (fn. 8) In 1608 three houses stood on the west side of the narrow green which lay on the ancient lane from St. Briavels to Lower Redbrook hamlet. (fn. 9) In 1851 there were a few farm labourers' cottages at Wyegate Green, (fn. 10) and two survived, recently restored, in 1992.</em></p>

<title>The Wicket, Newland</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recently started on my family history and have found this website very useful, especially for looking at bmd's and also at all the photos it gives me a real feel for the area. My great grandfather was Richard BERROW b. 20.06.1864 and the birth certificate I have for him states that he was born at The Wicket, Newland, this sounds like it might have been a pub, was it and does anyone have any information?  I know that Richard's father (Richard) and his father (William) were stone masons, perhaps it is something to do with that? Thank you.</p>
