Visiting The City Of Gloucester
Gloucester is a city near the Welsh border that is located on the Severn River. It was founded by the Romans in 48 AD. Many Roman coins have been found as well as some remnants of a wall. After the Romans left the Saxons took over control of the area in 577. The city was on a river and an abbey was constructed in 681. The street layouts of the core can be traced back to the end of the Saxons reign.
