Comments: Gloucestershire is a county in western England, athwart the line of the River Severn, rubbing up against Wales on its western side. Originally Glevum, one of the centers of Roman Britain, it was overrun by the Anglo-Saxons in the sixth century, ultimately forming part of Mercia until it was incorporated into England by Alfred the Great in the early tenth century. Ecclesiastical authority is vested in the Archbishop of Canterbury . There is a good deal of industry in the larger cities and the forest of Dean , particularly relating to ship building. The province yields a variety of agricultural produce as well.
