Number 20 and part of Abbey Precinct Wall, Medieval house and wall in College Green, Gloucester, England

Number 20 and the Abbey Precinct Wall display medieval architectural elements with their stone construction and traditional English building techniques from past centuries.

The Abbey Precinct Wall dates from the period between 1066 and 1484, forming part of the original boundaries that protected the religious grounds in medieval Gloucester.

The structure represents the strong connection between religious institutions and residential architecture in English medieval towns through its combined house and precinct wall design.

Located near Gloucester's Shire Hall, the Grade II listed building provides visitors with direct access to view both residential and defensive medieval construction methods.

The building incorporates an original section of the Abbey wall into its structure, creating an example of how medieval defensive elements merged with residential spaces.
