The Hundred of St Briavels is the statutory area over which the rights of the free miners as to coal, iron ore and ochre but not stone now extend.
Between the 11th century to 13th century, the shire counties were split into hundreds. St Briavels is the largest in the Forest of Dean and its boundaries approximate to the forest boundaries. Attribution statement: © Forestry Commission copyright and/or database right 2024. All rights reserved.
