The boundary sign is located NW of the A48, between the turnings for Perry Field behind the camera and Ashway ahead. Confusingly, for this visitor at least, the sign shows Woolaston but the area ahead is Netherend. The explanation is that Woolaston is both a village and a civil parish (in the Forest of Dean district of Gloucestershire). Netherend is part of the civil parish of Woolaston, which also includes many other hamlets and small villages, including Stroat, Woolaston Common, High Woolaston, Woolaston Woodside and Woolaston Slade.
