The Great Gatehouse, also known as the Abbey Gatehouse, is a historic Norman building on the south side of College Green in Bristol, England. Its earliest parts date back to around 1170 and was the gatehouse for St Augustine's Abbey, which was the precursor of Bristol Cathedral. The gatehouse stands to the cathedral's west, and to its own west it is abutted by the Bristol Central Library building.
