The Village Websmith - Web Design & Development in Your Area

Cider Appreciation Day

The locals gathered at the websmithy to take the short journey to Highbridge's West Croft Farm.

Iin striking contrast, the morning was spent at a huge international producer while the afternoon was with a one man band.

Abenhall is a tiny, ancient village in a secluded quiet valley near Mitcheldean. The parish includes the settlement of Plump Hill, on the Mitcheldean to Cinderford Road as it climbs into the high Forest.

Once part of the Westbury Hundred (which was known as Dene at the time of the 1086 Doomsday book) Abenhall is on the Flaxley to Mitcheldean Road. Originally a mining and iron making centre, it is notable for its 14th century Church of St Michael, which is built of local red sandstone and has excellent contemporary carvings relating to the Forest of Dean's industries. These include a shield bearing the arms of the Freeminers on the west wall and the fabulous mid -15th century octagonal font, that has tools of miners and metalworkers incised on its St Michaels at Abenhall sides.

St. Michael's Church - originally built as a chapel of ease, the church was expanded in the 14th century to include nave, south aisle and tower. The arms of the Freeminers can be seen on the south side of the tower and on the 18th century font. St. Michael's Church - Abenhall is 1.5 km south of Mitcheldean and is set in beautiful surroundings on the edge of the Forest. Old Parish baptism, marriage and burial registers, from 1596, are stored at the Gloucestershire Record Office.

Search engine performance in plain English

One of the questions most frequently asked by customers when thinking about a new or updated website is "How will it perform in the search engines?". Quite rightly so. There is nothing worse than having a website like the summit of Mount Everest; achingly beautiful but only a handful of people will ever see it.

We could offer a page of techno-babble here and rely on confusing the questioner into submission like so many of the SEO 'specialists', or 21st century alchemists as we prefer to call them.

Alternatively, we could let the results speak for themselves. The table below lists a number of our customer sites in motorcycle related trades, along with some of the search terms that find them on the front page. Try a few out and if you like what you see, call us to talk over how your site could be at the head of searches in your own profession. Just click on the search term to perform a Google search in a new window.

We will alway be happy to talk over your questions and explain the technical reasons behind why our sites work as well as they do. Simply call us on the number shown above or click in the header of any page to send us an email.
