I remember some of those buildings from the late 1960s and early 1970s - sadly no more. Thank you very much for showing this important archive piece of film - most interesting. Paul
Shocking how councils were allowed to eradicate so much history....a total lack of control or responsibility. Luckily some have survived and I appreciate time moves on and progress needs yo be allowed but it's sad to see how much was lost.
What an interesting video. Thank you. I knew Gloucester well in the 1960s. Sad to say that today Gloucester has lost most of its character but the cathedral is still well worth visiting.
The loss of England's precious heritage, at the hands of historically-ignorant or unsympathetic counicls, is short-sighted, irresponsibly, myopic and shocking. This is indeed a wake-up call. I resent how this generation has robbed mine of this legacy!
I've lived in Gloucester all my life since 1959 its so sad to have seen it ripped apart and ruined as have many other parts of this once great country very very sad😢
