The Brunswick, Park Road, Gloucester
A predominantly blue pub covered in artwork, including the figure of Jimi Hendrix and a pink octopus.
The pub has since closed, suffered a fire and been repainted so anyone wishing to see a pink octopus will need artificial stimulants.

Oops-a-daisy
In celebration of Gloucester being one of the venues for the 2015 Rugby World Cup, these oval gentlemen have appeared around the city. Based partly on the local tale of Humpty Dumpty - actually a siege engine or cannon which was brought to bear on the city walls but which collapsed irreparably - and the handily coincidental shape of a rugby ball, these sculptures form a visitor trail. They have been individually worked on by artists and sponsored by local concerns, and will eventually go to auction for charity.
This 'Scrumpty' is called Oops-a-daisy, by artist Maria Burns and sponsored by Linden Homes - who have redeveloped the former college into modern apartments here.

New homes on old graves
The former Gloscat Arts and Media Centre in Brunswick Road is now history. The area has been cleared of the 1960s campus, which allowed a window for modern archeological work to try to discover some new details. As it happens the site yielded an old Roman burial ground - the old town ramparts being just a short distance away to the southeast. Many skeletons were found, mostly simple and humble burials, but each giving a new depth to the understanding. However, the developers are now replacing the classrooms with a large residential opportunity.
