From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Folk of Gloucester is a museum which is housed in two of the oldest buildings in the city of Gloucester, a Tudor merchant's house and a 17th-century town house. The museum, at 99–103 Westgate Street, is devoted to the social history of Gloucestershire.
Bishop Hooper is said to have lodged in the buildings now occupied by the museum the night before he was burned at the stake in front of St Mary de Lode Church in 1555.[1]
The Museum was called Gloucester Folk Museum before rebranding itself in 2016.[2] and then became Gloucester Life until it rebranded itself again in 2019.[3]
