Restoration

Robert Raikes's House occupies a magnificent Grade II*-listed timber-framed merchant's-house dating from 1560. It is named after the founder of the Sunday School movement, one of Gloucester’s most famous sons. He took over ownership of the Gloucester Journal from his father and in 1758 he moved it into this building, where he and his family later lived also. It became a merchant’s house and shop before becoming a restaurant and then a pub in 1975. It was reopened in 2008 after a two-year refurbishment by Sam Smiths. Their restoration is exceptional and inside is a maze of wooden pillars and beams largely faithful to the house's old plan and structure. The pub serves real ale and meals.
