Share your own memories of Redbrook and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

I remember visiting Redbrook as a teenager. My cousin Peggy and Michael Alvis lived in Hillside Road I went to school with their eldest daughter Margaret. I was fascinated with this quant village and village life. I later visited family in Monmouth when I was On a Geography field trip in Hereford. The views from their road still stick in my mind after 55years. Dorothy Archbold
My grandfather Francis Sidney Morgan was born here in the 70s. At the turn of the century he left to take up employment in Llanelli as a rollerman in tinplate works, as did lots of people from this area. We had relatives in Lydbrook and Lydney too. I remember going to visit them and going to Coleford and Cinderford. is there anyone else that can relate to my family? It would be glad to hear from them.
