A short history of Lydney
An Iron Age promontory fort at Lydney Park was later used for iron ore mining and in the late Roman period a temple to Nodens was constructed where the fort had stood. The name appears as Lideneg in about 853 and as Ledenei in the 1086 Domesday Book and is taken to mean the island or river-meadow of a sailor or of a man called Lida. In 1588 Sir William Winter received the manor of Lydney for his part against the Spanish Armada and the house he built, White Cross Manor, burned down in 1645. The Winter family sold the estate to the Bathurst family in 1723. Docks were built in 1810. Charles Bathurst became Viscount Bledisloe of Lydney in 1935 and the Pine End Works opened in 1940 to make plywood for aircraft. The Beatles played at Lydney Town Hall on 31 August 1962 and in 1964 the Lydney Murder became a significant case in the use of insect evidence in criminal investigation. The Church of St Mary is Grade I listed, among 53 listed buildings in the centre.
