Hillfield House was used as a local government office but now is privately owned; it stands in its former gardens which are now a public park known as Hillfield Gardens. Pevsner describes the house as 'the most elaborate house in Gloucester'. It was built in an Italianate style by John Giles in 1867-9 for the timber merchant Charles Walker. The house is a Grade II listed building.
