Summary

Description
English: The village of Clearwell Situated on a narrow valley floor with steep sides, south of the old market town of Coleford is Clearwell, once known as Wellington, meaning ‘the place of the spring’. The spring can be found behind the Wyndham Arms and was once important in the tanning and nail making industries. In the 13th century the name of the village was changed to Clearwell, meaning ‘the spring amongst the clovers’. In the centre of the village is a tall 14th century cross; the shaft and cross were replaced when the church was built in 1866 in its new location.
