Purton, Lydney
Purton is a hamlet on the west bank of the River Severn, in the civil parish of Lydney in Gloucestershire, England. It lies opposite the village of Purton on the east bank of the river. The name of the place derives from the Old English pirige tun, meaning "pear orchard". It was mentioned in the Domesday Book. Purton was a small port, and there was a ferry across the river to the other Purton by 1282. In the late 18th and early 19th century, there was also a ford across the river here.
Severn Bridge railway station
Severn Bridge railway station was a small station on the Severn Bridge Railway located close to the north west bank of the River Severn, 2 miles north of Lydney.
Bledisloe Tump
Bledisloe Tump was a castle in the village of Awre in Gloucestershire, England. The first castle on the site was built in the 11th or early 12th century and was a simple timber structure. The site was chosen because it occupied a natural high point overlooking the River Severn. A later mound, 60 ft wide and 7 ft high was also constructed on the site, and it is suspected that this may have been an unfinished motte.
