Gloucestershire is not short of picturesque buildings.

That's not to say the county's architects haven't taken a misstep or two down the years.

From infamous sites to hidden gems, from disused eyesores to grey tower blocks, here are Gloucestershire's best and worst buildings according to you.

The best

Gloucester Cathedral
Gloucester Cathedral

A predictable favourite was Gloucester Cathedral, with one reader arguing "nothing else even comes close" to the medieval structure.

Another picked the Gloucester Waterways Museum, in the Docks, which was built as part of Llanthony Warehouse in 1873.

One plumped for the "stunning views" from Grade I-listed St Bartholomew church atop Chosen Hill in Churchdown.

There was also support for Cheltenham Minster, St Mary's, in Clarence Street, described as "a hidden treasure in the heart of Cheltenham".

One person wrote: "The outside is beautiful and venture inside - its stunning beauty will take your breath away."

Another opted for Woodchester Mansion. The unfinished Gothic revival mansion house was established in 1870 in Woodchester Park, Stonehouse.

The Wotton-under-Edge's Ram Inn was also thrown into the mix. The Grade II-listed former pub dates back to 1145, and rumours abound that it is haunted.

One reader selected the "stunning" Grade I-listed St Peter's church in the historic village of Clearwell, in the Forest of Dean.

Another choice was the 121-year-old former Carriage Works building in Bruton Way, which fell into a derelict state before it was converted into a workplace for Roberts Limbrick Architects in recent years.

This was called "a great improvement to this part of Gloucester".

And the worst

Tricorn House, near Cainscross roundabout in Stroud, received the most votes for this dubious honour. It is pictured at the top of this page.

One woman wrote: "Most of the buildings in Stroud are very fitting for Stroud but Tricorn House is an eyesore to everyone and a bad approach to Stroud for visitors."

Many of the site's windows are broken. Plans were announced last year for the building to be turned into flats.

Another person nominated the tower block at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital, in Great Western Road, Gloucester.

When the hospital had a £28million rebuild in 2005, the tower remained, to the dismay of some of our readers.

One commented: "The new bit is so much nicer. Trouble is, how would they make the tower block look nicer without knocking it down?"

Slamming Gloucester's Bruton Way car park, one comment read: "It hasn’t been used in years and is not the best welcome to our city from the train or bus station."

The building will be demolished and replaced with a new car park next year.

One woman said she would like to see the back of concrete office block Eagle Tower in Montpellier Drive, Cheltenham - or as she called it, 'Eagle Star'.

And another said she is not a fan of either the Land Registry office in Bruton Way.
