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.

Chillingworth Mews
A new collection of houses have been endowed with the address of Chillingworth Mews. This is, as a plaque illustrates, in honour of Dr William Chillingworth - the designer of a siege machine that was destroyed in the Siege of Gloucester of 1643. The event is commemorated in the children's rhyme of Humpty Dumpty. However, the original verses were:
'Humpty Dumpty fell in a beck,
with all his sinews round his neck,
forty surgeons and forty knights,
couldn't put Humpty Dumpty to rights.'
