More information on Gloucester Arms (The)

The Gloucester Arms is a great pub, but few ever see the inside; as it is tucked away down Friars Entry beside a loud neighboring establishment, it is easy to overlook. The jukebox here is a haven of 70s and 80srock, with the likes of Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin. The Gloucester's friendly ambience makes it a really fun place to have a drink, if you're into that scene.

Traveler Photos of Oxford

Love that ochre shade Somewhere in Oxford. Liverpool, this church was bombed in WW2. St. Helen's Passage, where we walked through during the Ghost Tour (which was fascinating and very well guided I might add) where a lot of bloodshed occurred and where apparently there are lots of reports of a feeling of unease or anxiousness, and the smell of horses still residing from that day!
