Lydbrook and Joys Green are to the west, Ruardean is to the north, and Ruardean Woodside is to the east. The Pludds has a village hall.[1] HistoryThe name of the hamlet derives from the Middle English word "pludde" or "plodde", meaning a pool or puddle.[2] The area was known as The Pludds by 1787 when a few houses are reported.[3] One of the oldest surviving houses, Pludds Court, dates from the late 18th or early 19th century.[3] Occasional building continued at the Pludds after 1840 and a beerhouse called the Royal Oak had opened by 1891.[3] In the late 19th and early 20th century there was a coal shaft known as "Pluds" just southwest of the hamlet, which formed part of the Lydbrook Colliery.[4] The hamlet had shops, a beerhouse, a choral society, and a cricket club, but these had all been closed or been disbanded by 1990.[3] The village hall, built in 1975, continues in use.[3] References1. ^[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5Yi_TH4axc YouTube video from "The Pludds Village Hall"] 2. ^A.
