A 1939 Thornbury mystery

[double-trouble]

Hi all , looking for a little help on a name that popped up yesterday on the 1939 register .
I purchased info . on Mabel ( b . 1895 ) and Joseph Helman ( b . 1886 ) who are shown to be living at the Brock Holt Post Office Telephone Exchange , Thornbury R . D . Glouc .
Having searched various maps from the time last night and this morning I am yet to find the name of Brock Holt the area .
I followed the old railway line thinking it should read HALT , but found nothing . Could it be misspelt and read BRICK ? I've looked but still nothing . I looked along the Gloucester Rd towards Gloucester and Bristol thinking that a telephone exchange may be near to the main road , but still found nothing .
Any thoughts or info . would be appreciated . Possibly local knowledge where the name is known .
Appreciate any help and an early Happy New Year .

"Brockholt" is written like that in inverted commas, so I would assume it is the name of the residence, the same as others on the page.

Although Thornbury appears at the top of the page, that's the R.D. - Rural District. The addresses appear to be in Almondsbury, including The Hill. So I suspect it will be round there somewhere (but I haven't spotted it).

Thanks for replies..still looking through maps at the moment . I've looked from the A38 Filton through to Alveston via Almondsbury and beyond towards far end of Thornbury Town ( Crossways ) .
It will pop up somewhere..probably not when I'm looking for it . Thankyou

Go straight ahead, turn right up Red House Lane to The Hill and "The Red House" at the top of Red House Lane occupied in 1939 by Edwin PRICE, master baker and confectioner.

The Post Office would have been around there, probably on the main road.

 I can't see Brock Holt either, but it does seem to be in Almondsbury parish.

There is a grave in Almondsbury parish churchyard, possibly for the parents or other relatives with a stone that has/had the inscription;

In loving memory of
Joseph Helman
who died September 30th 1902
Aged 63 years
“Oh what the joy and the glory must be
those endless Sabbaths the blessed ones see
Crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest
God shall be all & in all ever blessed”.
Also of Sarah Ann
the beloved wife of the above
who died May 9th 1924
Aged 87 years.

Here's the link in case there are any more people of interest there;

If you do a Google search on Brockholt, Almondsbury you also get a couple of archive hits for Bockholt?
