Brockhollands is a hamlet located in the Forest of Dean. It lies between the village of Bream and the town of Lydney in Gloucestershire. It is an obscure and small area with around 30 houses and is relatively unknown even in the local area. With its only attributes being the local sheep farm, it rarely sees any tourism but is frequently driven through by those going up to Bream.
