More about this scene

The names over the shops - Ivor Griffiths and Williams the tobacconist's, Charles Kay and Birt's Stores - remind us that the Forest of Dean lies between Wales and England, embracing elements of both to create a character that is all its own. Remote though it must have been in times gone by, Coleford has been a centre of habitation for at least 2,000 years. Evidence of this was provided in the 1980s when the High Nash industrial estate was being built and a large Roman temple was discovered.
