About the Shop & Museum
The House of the Tailor of Gloucester is today a charming museum and quaint shop. The building is easy to find. It is in College Court which stands within the shadow of the Cathedral. This was the building, Beatrix Potter chose to draw (page 37 in The Tailor of Gloucester) which inspired her to write what she described as her ‘favourite book’.
The Museum
Dedicated the whole top floor of 9 College Court, as a delightful museum to Beatrix Potter & her magical work.
Our History
The inspiration for this story came in May 1894 when Beatrix Potter was staying with her cousin, Caroline Hutton.
