Gloucester Quays

Gloucester Docks are a unique and inspring destination, described by Charles Dickens as “extraordinary”. It was Elizabeth I who granted the city port status, making Gloucester the most inland port in the country. Visitors can see skilled shipwrights and riggers repairing, restoring and building traditional ships and rigging all year round in Tommi Nielsen’s dry dock on the West Quay. The Gloucester Quays area is a favourite for visitors and locals alike, with a great mix of waterside museums, bars, cafes, restaurants, antiques centre and a shopping centre, all nestling comfortably alongside the docks’ maritime heritage.
