The home’s name is deeply steeped in history, giving a nod to two great civilisations - the Romans and the Celts. Nodens Manor takes its inspiration from the Roman-built temple in nearby Lydney Park. Lord of the Rings author, J. R. R. Tolkien, was invited to examine a Latin inscription at the site and has linked the name Nodens back to Nuada, a Celtic healing god worshipped in Ancient Britain. The site at Lydney Park is said to have inspired Moria and Eregion in Tolkien’s Middle Earth.
