A new blue plaque, that highlights places of historical or architectural interest, around Ross, has been put up in the town and two of the existing ones have been replaced and refurbished.

A building in Copse Cross Street, opposite the entrance to Old Gloucester Road has been identified as a building of note and a plaque has been placed upon it. It reads: 'Wool Warehouse. Occupied by Wood Panter and Lloyd. Woolstaplers in 1787'.

In 1985 Drewe Lacey, the mayor at the time , made it his project to have places of interest marked for the town trail, which was then written by Heather Hurley. A small team walked round the town and indentified places of interest. They then erected the blue plaques with information about the person who had lived or visited there or about, among other things, the trades, charities or schools that had occupied the building.

This year the trail has been updated and revised, and the Civic Society decided to restore or where necessary replace the blue plaques. The Walter Scott Building and The British and Foreign School have both received replacement plaques and the Bishop's Palace's has been refurbished.
