No bull here
Oxbode Street, minus any signs of an open-air butchery. The local tale is recounted in a nursery rhyme when the lane was a great deal narrower and perhaps known as Mitre Street. It's said a large ox was brought to market but became inextricably stuck between the houses. Faced with the problem and no way of moving the poor animal, a butcher was summoned to dispatch and dismember it on the spot.
By the early twentieth century the area was a slum and was cleared and widened to allow a better passage to all. The name Oxbode (ox body) remains.

New Inn, Gloucester
The New Inn isn't all that new, having been built in 1450 to accommodate visitors to the Benedictine Abbey of St Peter (now Gloucester Cathedral http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6091523 ). The arrangement around a courtyard surrounded by first-floor galleries is typical of mediaeval inns, although few have survived to the present day as intact as New Inn. The view takes in the whole courtyard with the passageway towards the front on Northgate Street.
