Kingshill House, Dursley
Image: © Stephen Richards Taken: 19 Aug 2003
A noble late C18th front in marlstone and limestone, brutalised by alterations of 1876 which destroyed the symmetry. What were they thinking? Grade II* listed. The house was used as council offices for a time, and after a period of dereliction, it is now run by a charity as an arts venue, with meetings rooms available for hire.
