Newnham
Newnham or Newnham on Severn is a town in west Gloucestershire, England. It hinges on the Royal Woodland of Dean, on the west bank of the River Severn, approximately 10 miles south-west of Gloucester as well as three miles southeast of Cinderford. It is on the A48 road between Gloucester as well as Chepstow, Monmouthshire, Wales. The village has a parish council. A parish church was established in the 14th century (although there had been a church of convenience considering that 1018), and in 1366 a brand-new church building was improved the high ground of the town as the old one dealt with disintegration from the river. The new building has itself been harmed by a gunpowder explosion in 1644 during the English Civil War as well as a fire in 1881, but is still in use. Because of Newnham's area on the Severn, the Ancient Romans constructed three roads with the place, where they forded the river. The Anglo-Saxons established a long-term settlement, the Normans developed a motte-and-bailey stronghold for defence, and in middle ages times it ended up being a major port with links around Great Britain as well as Ireland. In 1171, Henry II of England presented an invasion of Ireland from Newnham. One account asserted that he set sail with 400 ships and 5,000 guys, which recommends its significance as a port. For a while Newnham was the most effective Gloucestershire community west of the Severn. Its role as a port and trading hub decreased, however, swiftly with the 1827 opening of the Gloucester and also Sharpness Canal. In 1810, an early effort at a Severn tunnel began construction simply south of Newnham. Work was abandoned after flooding in 1812. The civil parish becomes part of Newnham and also Westbury selecting ward. This ward starts in the north at Westbury-on-Severn and after that complies with the River Severn to Newnham. The overall population of the ward taken at the 2011 census was 3,088.
