Built 1875 by Sir George Gilbert Scott, in what the Listing describes as 'Middle Pointed style'. Listed Grade II. It became the Anglo-Asian Cultural Centre, a Chinese-based organisation – in 2000. One feature missing from this view is the former Midland Railway main line between Bristol and Birmingham which crossed Barton Street by a level crossing with an unusual signal box on a gantry above the tracks, visible in this view http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/g/gloucester_eastgate/index23.shtml . The section of the line through the City was closed in 1975 because of the disruption caused by this and 4 other level crossings, with all trains being re-routed to use the present Gloucester station.
