Forest of Dean FHT Forum - William WALTERS/WALKERS born 1875 Two Bridges https://forum.forest-of-dean.net/ Connecting Forest of Dean Researchers World-Wide en William WALTERS/WALKERS born 1875 Two Bridges (reply) If you take the road from Soudley to Blakeney, about halfway between the two is a small rough road off to the left which will take you to the area known as Two Bridges. You can see it clearly on Google Earth if you put in "2 Bridges, Blakeney, GL15 4AF"
Hope this helps.

Dave

Type in 'Two Bridges' in the search box and it will show you the location of the place.

Also, if you type in 'Two Bridges' in the forums search box you will find a thread with further information.
