Mark on the Nick
A benchmark on the outer wall of the old Gloucester prison, running along the rather narrow Barbican Road. Despite the obvious application of some fresh pointing that has filled in the arrows it is still legible. See http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm28506 for the entry in the Benchmark Database and Image] for a wider view.

Once doors for debtors - Gloucester Prison, Gloucestershire
Having been closed some three years ago by the Ministry of Justice, the site is now in the ownership of City and Country who are to develop the site for residential use. This building dates from the original prison of 1792 and was used as a debtors prison where the living conditions could be varied according to their means. Until the prison finally closed in 2013 it was subsequently used as the healthcare wing or, less formally, the hospital. Time photo taken 1.53 pm BST (British Summer Time).

Barbican Road
The high wall is part of Gloucester Prison - hence the particularly high proportions. Near this turn and buttress is a (partly-cemented) cut benchmark - see Image

Office block on Longsmith Street
I believe this building was part of the police station, it appears to have undergone a facelift, I'm not sure if it still is. As appears to be the practice these days, 'cladding' has been applied. Here's the same building in 2014 Image

Still the head offices of Gloucestershire County Council.
