    St Briavels (pronounced Brevels, once known as 'Ledenia Parva' (Little Lydney), is a medium-sized village and civil parish in the Royal Forest of Dean in west Gloucestershire, England; close to the England-Wales border, and 5 miles (8 km) south of Coleford. It stands almost 800 feet (240 m) above sea level on the edge of a limestone plateau above the valley of the River Wye, above an ancient meander of the river. To the west, Cinder Hill drops off sharply into the valley. It is sheltered behind the crumbling walls of the 12th century St Briavels Castle.

      A suprisingly beautiful and historic little village in the middle of nowhere..Take a map as you may lose GPS in some spots.
