Clearwell
Clearwell is a small village between Coleford and Newland. Nevertheless, it boasts a hotel, two public houses, a church, a chapel, a primary school and a castle (currently used as a wedding venue). The central point of the village is a cross erected in the 14th century. The castle is the most significant buiding in the village. It was built in the 18th century in a gothic revival style, was known as Clearwell Court and until the end of the 19th century it was the home of the Wyndham family.*
