Local Business Marketing Intelligence in Palmers Flat

Palmers Flat sits within Forest of Dean, South West, covering the GL16 postcode area, with English Bicknor, Sling and Little Drybrook close by. Cinderford was essentially created in the 19th century by the rapid growth of its ironworks and the Forest of Dean coalfield, while Ross-on-Wye is where the Wye Tour, Britain's first organised tourist boat trip, began in the 18th century.

Government data (ONS, March 2026) recorded 3,800 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area. Forest of Dean & Wye Valley Tourism, the area's destination management organisation, runs a business directory covering local suppliers and producers across Cinderford, Ross-on-Wye and the wider Forest of Dean.

Job density in Forest of Dean was 0.63 in 2024 (ONS) - roughly that many jobs for every working-age resident. Numbers like that are part of the backdrop marketing intelligence is built to work within.
