The photo was taken outside of the stone out-building adjoining Forest View, New Road, Bream by F.N. Jones of Coleford. The building was refered to as "The Institute" at this time (1906) and had a snooker table inside. It was a meeting place for Bream Scouts in the early 1930's. Among other things it has been used for dancing lessons.
Thanks to Jonathon Morse for adding: "Thomas Morse [in the back row at the right] (1847-1913) was a Free-Miner, mill owner and Landlord of the Rising Sun ..1876.. He can also be seen on the picture of the Free Miners hanging in the Speech House"..."After more research I am 99.9% sure that the gentleman seated on the left hand side of the photo wearing a bowler hat is my grandfather Thomas Morse born 1873 and he died one year after this picture in 1907. He is the son of Thomas Morse satnding far right."
