Enfield House is a Grade II* listed building at 18 Low Pavement, Nottingham.
The house was occupied by Mr. Stockdale in 1743 and he may have been responsible for the current frontage of Enfield House which was erected ca. 1755 [2] and was probably a refacing of an existing building. It is noted for its fine Venetian windows. The rear facade of the house is thought to have been built in 1760. [3] The building contains cellars with brick vaults, wine bins and thrawls, cut from the rock on two levels linked by a winder stair. [1] The house became known as Enfield House after it was lived in by Henry Enfield from 1815, town clerk from 1816 to 1845. After his death, other members of the Enfield family continued to live there and eventually it became the business premises of Henry Houghton Enfield, solicitor until 1934. [4]

Gloucester Cathedral, formally the Cathedral Church of St Peter and the Holy and Indivisible Trinity, in Gloucester, England, stands in the north of the city near the River Severn. It originated with the establishment of a minster, Gloucester Abbey, dedicated to Saint Peter and founded by Osric, King of the Hwicce, in around 679. The subsequent history of the church is complex; Osric's foundation came under the control of the Benedictine Order at the beginning of the 11th century and in around 1058, Ealdred, Bishop of Worcester, established a new abbey "a little further from the place where it had stood". The abbey appears not to have been an initial success, by 1072, the number of attendant monks had reduced to two. The present building was begun by Abbott Serlo in about 1089, following a major fire the previous year.
