Riflemans House:

Rifleman's House is a newly restored and refurbished Cotswold house, which was originally a cloth Mill in the 1770's, later to become an Inn. The house was named Rifleman's after the Gloucester rifle range who frequented the Inn and practiced shooting in the field opposite and musket balls can still be found to this day! The Rifleman's House has been featured in many British magazines from Homes and Gardens to The Sunday Times, due to the owner, Ali's stylish flair for mixing authentic and modern furnishings.
