More about this scene
The Triangle is at the centre of Cinderford. The war memorial lists the names of local men who lost their lives during the two world wars, many of them while serving with the county regiment, the Glosters. Today the population of Cinderford stands at around 7,500, but up until the 19th century Cinderford was no more than a tiny hamlet clustered around the building that is now The Bridge Inn on Speech House Road. When coal mining began on a commercial scale, the town's fortunes grew rapidly. This source of prosperity came to a close in the 1960s when mining was discontinued, but in more recent decades Cinderford has re-invented itself by attracting a wealth of new businesses.
