Ligh Gloucester and the other saying Lea, Gloucester.

I'd put my money on this being the Lea on the Glos/Herford border...

as ChrisW says its about 2 miles from Weston under Penyard

http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/GLS/Lea/index.html

"Formerly Lea, Gloucestershire and Lea, Herefordshire until both were united in 1844. Includes townships of Upper Lea, and Lower Lea formerly in Gloucestershire. Transferred from ...Gloucester to Hereford [Diocese] in 1975."
