Infirmary Arcade is a late medieval vaulted passage located in Gloucester.

The arcade is constructed of stone and features characteristic Gothic vaulting, representing the skilled masonry work of the period. As a surviving element of medieval cathedral infrastructure, it provides evidence of the spatial organisation and functional arrangement of a major ecclesiastical establishment during the late Middle Ages.
