The Pike House and some sheep
The Pike House and some sheep
In this part of the Forest of Dean the sheep are free to wander over the roads. This house was presumably a turnpike cottage. An old photo (1888) shows gates on both the Coleford (right) and Bream (left) roads as well as a tramway running between the Coleford road and the house.
