A week in the Forest of Dean (6) - Parkend

Parkend Station is one terminus of the Dean Forest Railway (Lydney Harbour is the other). The village of Parkend was once a significant place in the mining industry of the Forest. It is now a tranquil village with a striking octagonal church - at the top of a hill, in a forest clearing, with a graveyard in the midst of the trees. It seems a wonderful place to spend eternity.
