Some Mitcheldean Cottages

Mitcheldean (10 miles east of Gloucester), on the eastern edge of the Forest of Dean was called Dean until the 13th century, afterwards it was generally known as Mitchel Dean or Great Dean to distinguish it from the other "Deans" (Mitchell is from the Old English word "Mickle" = Great, and Dean or Dene = Vale, especially a deep, narrow, wooded valley). Granted a market in 1328, Mitcheldean was a centre for industries based on the products of the adjacent Forest - coal, timber, iron and wool. The town grew up around a crossroad where the road from Littledean to Ross - possibly the old Roman road from Lydney crossed a road serving the north of the Forest.
