Gloucester Histories

The story of Gloucester goes back over two thousand years. There are countless tales to be told of the City's past and present. These are just a few of them.

The Civil War was a turning point for both Gloucester and England. The River Severn and docks transformed the City and have now been transformed themselves. Meanwhile Gloucester's rich cultural life has continued to flourish in every field from sport to art, and everywhere from cinema to cathedral.
