16 Rotunda Terrace, Montpellier Street

Address of Gustavus, his wife and five children in the 1861 census.

One of the five children was Adolph, later to become Gustav Holst’s father. Adolph was born in London in 1846, moving to Cheltenham as a young boy. He too was musically talented, teaching, performing and writing music as well as organising concerts.

Now cross the road and take the cut-through between Tom Howley Kitchens and Roundhouse to reach Montpellier Walk and your next stop at Circus Bar.
