A Forest of Dean Football League medal awarded for the 1923-1924 season. This one was awarded to Fred Yorke (Courtesy of Richard Yorke) Bream Amateurs have played in several locations in Bream. Former player Harold Cornock recalled (Sep 2006) that the earliest field that he can remember them using was the one immediately behind Acacia Close - and adjacent to the current chip shop. The team changed at "Dappers" (The Kings Head). Later they moved - to a field where Westbury Homes are now located. The entrance was from the High Street adjacent to Downham's Bakery and Bakehouse. This time they changed at the old Cross Keys. After that they moved back to the first location mentioned before moving to the field behind Bream St James church - with access from Bream Rugby Club. Their changing rooms were at the Bream Rugby Club. They moved again to the land at Sun Green adjacent to the cricket pitch which proved too muddy in wet weather and suffered from the materials used in the landfill there moving up to the surface. They currently play outside Bream.
