Each year, the Gloucester Civic Trust hosts a series of talks concentrating on the City of Gloucester, spanning over 2000 years. These hour long talks give a good understanding of the City’s rich historic past, told with many stories and anecdotes illustrated with a comprehensive range of slides both old and new.
