Old Ruspidge sub-post office, Forest of Dean
Until very recently this was the old sub-post office for Ruspidge, although officially on the wrong side of Saint White's road to be Ruspidge. Since the recent (October, 2008) closure of the Post Office side of the business the name and business has changed to 'Ruspidge Shop.'

Saint White's School, Ruspidge, Forest of Dean
Saint White's School is located on the Southern side of Saint White's Road and extends round the corner (far distance of the photo) into Buckshaft where it continues - thus forming an L-shape. The school has spread to the other side of the road in Buckshaft. This forces a very careful transfer of pupils across Buckshaft when they move from one part of the school to the other.

St John the Evangelist, Cinderford
Parish church, dating from 1844. It cost £2694 11 shillings 4 pence to build. A very full history written by a previous vicar is on the parish site http://www.stjohnscinderford.org/page8.html. This details everything from the despair of the Victorian clergy over "the lawlessness and laxity of morals" of the locals and the efforts of local worthies to get land for a church, right up to the replacement of the chancel carpets in 2005.
