St Michael's Tower, Gloucester

St Michael's Tower, Gloucester, stands at ''The Cross'', where the four main streets of Gloucester (Northgate, Eastgate, Southgate and Westgate Streets) meet. ''The Cross'' is also the highest point in the city. The Tower is on the corner of Eastgate and Southgate Streets and the entrance is in Southgate Street. It was built in 1465 on the site of the previous ''St Michael the Archangel''.〔(St Michael’s Tower at Gloucester Cross. ) Gloucester Civic Trust, 2010. Retrieved 6 August 2011.〕 It is no longer used for religious ceremonies.
==History==
The tower was built in 1465 on the site of the nave of the previous church of ''St Michael the Archangel''. There had been a church on the site since the 12th century and Roman remains were found under the tower. In the 1840s the old church was demolished, apart from the tower, and a new church was constructed in 1851. The new ''St Michael’s Church'' was closed in 1940, however, and in 1952 the parish was united with St Mary de Crypt.〔 The main part of the new church was demolished in 1956, but again the tower was spared.〔(In Pictures: St. Michael's Tower. ) BBC Gloucestershire, August 2008. Retrieved 7 August 2011.〕
From 1976 until 1981, the upper floors were used as a bell museum and between 1985 and 1998 it was used as a tourist information centre. At one time the ground floor was an open walkway between Eastgate and Southgate Streets. Eventually it fell into disrepair and was used as storage space by Gloucester City Council.〔
