Description
The Mariners' Chapel in the centre of the main docks area of Gloucester Docks was built by public subscription and opened in 1849. The chaplain welcomed seamen visiting Gloucester, often going on board ships to spread the word of God, and he also cared for the interests of local boatmen and dockers. The building is still used for worship by a small congregation of local people, and it is usually open to visitors during the day.
