Welcome to Tidenham
Tidenham is an English civil parish within the district of Forest of Dean and the county of Gloucestershire
Tidenham remains an essentially rural parish with a few villages, hamlets and farms which are mainly dairy or stock rearing, with only light industries in Sedbury and Beachley.
In the 1990s a successful and popular protest overturned plans to build a Chepstow bypass which would have brought massive developments in both residential and warehousing with a road that would have destroyed our historic landscape.
Communications and transport have always been the key to parish history and we can only guess at the what the future may bring.
