<title>Watery Lane End (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From <a href="https://www.fdean.gov.uk/media/3820/littledean-parish-plan.pdf">https://www.fdean.gov.uk/media/3820/littledean-parish-plan.pdf</a></p>
<p>&quot;Outside the village the parish contains scattered dwellings including Dean Hall, by the Newnham road, which for over two centuries belonged to the Pyrke family and was the principal residence in Littledean. In the 17th and 18th centuries several small settlements were formed by squatter development on waste ground just outside the Forest, notably at Callamore in the west but also on Dean hill in the southeast and at Waterend Lane (formerly Waterlane End) on the old Mitcheldean road in the north.&quot;</p>
<p>and</p>
<p>&quot;At Waterend Lane five squatter cottages belonged to Littledean in 1679. Further north a homestead built by Richard Taylor (d. 1712) became known as the Greenway.&quot;</p>
<p>Greenway is clearly marked on old maps so that's a good reference.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is from another Contributer which gives the Enumerator's Notes from the 1851 census</p>
<p>Westbury on Severn, <br />
Newnham<br />
District 4A</p>
<p><br />
All that part of the Township of East Dean which comprises </p>
<p>Popes Hill<br />
Hangman's Hill<br />
Chestnuts Lodge<br />
Greenway<br />
Shapride Hill<br />
Watery Lane End</p>
<p><br />
----</p>
<p>Then I googled:<strong> Hangman's Hill Drybrook</strong></p>
<p><br />
and from the website</p>
<p>British History on Line</p>
<p>Forest of Dean - Settlement</p>
<p><br />
about 18 pages but </p>
<p>&quot;East of the Mitcheldean-Littledean road there were 15 cottages on the lower slopes of Chestnut Hill in 1782 some were on the south-western side at Waterend Lane (fn.358) on the Littledean boundary where six cottages stood on<strong> Crown Land in 1834.</strong>&quot; etc</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Could you give us the name - as the Enumerators notes on Page 1 - will talk his route through.</p>
<p>There is a baptism at Drybrook in 1839 (parents: William &amp; Sarah BRISCOE) - residence: Watery Lane End - but they appear to have moved by 1841.</p>
<p>Watery Lane (without the <strong>End)</strong> is mentioned in other baptisms etc</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Can't really help but I've found, when I've been trying to find specific locations, that looking at adjacent census entries for recognisable buildings, such as pubs, helps to pinpoint where the location is.</p>

<title>Watery Lane End</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have come across the location which looks like &quot; Watery Lane End&quot;. Its on a census document from the general area of Popes Hill. There are lots of properties linked to this lane.<br />
Would appreciate knowing it location<br />
