About Gloucester
Lying on the eastern bank of the River Severn, Gloucester is attractively situated between the Cotswolds to the east, the Forest of Dean to the west and the Malvern Hills to the north.
Economically Gloucester is dominated by the service industries and has a long history in the aerospace industry. The city also has a strong financial and business sector, being home to the bank Cheltenham & Gloucester.
The city remains a port, whose renovated docks accommodate the National Waterways Museum along with luxury residential apartments, shops and bars.
Building attractions include Gloucester Cathedral, many medieval and Tudor houses, numerous churches, minor remains of monasteries and priories, and the site of the former residence of notorious killers Fred and Rose West.
The city also hosts festivals and events at local, national and international level and is home to some major sports teams.
