The town of Gloucester is of huge historical importance. It was founded as Roman Glevum - a garrison town.

Under the Saxons it regained importance in the 7th century with the establishment of the monastery of St Peter.

William I announced in Gloucester his great undertaking, the Domesday Book. Soon after, work started on the abbey church that was to become the city's landmark on completion in 1120, its Cathedral of St Peter.

It is a superb example of medieval ecclesiastical architecture, a successful blend of Norman and Perpendicular. The tower, built 1450, replaces the earlier smaller tower and spire and contains Great Peter, the last medieval Bourdon bell.

The Cathedral Green is surrounded by houses from the 16th to 18th centuries and the 15th-century half-timbered Parliament Room, where Richard II held Parliament in 1378.
