High on the ridge that runs from the centre of Cinderford due South to Ruspidge stands the 5-storey Baptist church that was built by the citizens of the town in 1860. In its hey-day there were Sunday schools, Bible meetings and services throughout the very large building. The photograph shows a goodly part of the graveyard that slopes down towards the valley bottom.
