In days gone by when there was heavy industry, coal and stone from the Forest of Dean, there was a single track rail road with a level crossing at this point. The Level Crossing Keeper kept a Key or Token for the passing train. Behind the cottage is the entrance to the old Bradley Hill Tunnel which led down, eventually, to the River Severn.
