Cathedral Quarter
The Cathedral Quarter includes some of Gloucester’s richest heritage properties, including The Fleece Hotel and other beautiful, historic properties dating back to the C15 along Westgate Street and roads adjoining. The programme is run by Gloucester City Council and funded by mainly by Historic England through the national High Street Heritage Action Zone programme. Awarded in 2019, over 5 years the programme will secure £1.9m of Historic England funding and matched funding from Gloucester City Council, other local partners and property owners. The programme will part fund the restoration of many of the area’s historic properties along with a programme of activities and events to attract visitors and to engage the local community.

August update: Work on the Cathedral Quarter project has continued to progress, with heritage-led regeneration breathing new life into Westgate Street and its historic buildings.
Key projects are nearing completion, with a new period-appropriate Critall-style shopfront in place at the 1930s Number 39 Westgate Street and scaffolding coming down in Bull Lane for the first time in two years.
As we head into the next stages of the Cathedral Quarter project, we’ll be launching a scheme to give Westgate shopfronts a bit of love – and traditional signage to boot.
