Ruardean Woodside is a village in Gloucestershire, England, located in the Forest of Dean and tucked away behind Ruardean Hill and Brierley. The houses are affordable in the village as there is cheap council housing and cheap private housing due to the isolated location. There is a primary school, a village hall, and a village shop incorporating a post office. The Roebuck was the last of the local pubs to close.

Education

Woodside Primary School (informally known as The Slad) is located at the bottom of the village, on the road between neighbouring settlements of Brierley and Ruardean. The nearest secondary school is Dene Magna Community School in Mitcheldean.
