The Botetourt Building currently houses the Gloucester Museum of History

Formerly known as the Botetourt Hotel, and prior to that known as John New's Ordinary, this building was advertised in February 1774 as "The tavern lately occupied by Mr. John New at Gloucester Court House, a large two story house, billiard table, and offices of every kind, new and convenient, with a good garden paled in, and a lot posted and railed.  At the same time and place will be rented for a term of years, a tavern at the above place kept by William Hall; the building is large and convenient, and there is a garden."
