With very easy access to the city centre - by foot, bus or ferry - Hotwells is a popular location and enjoys shops, restaurants and traditional pubs, including the Hope and Anchor. Eighteenth century Dowry Square in Clifton Wood attracts sight-seeing visitors: it remains a residential square and hosts the occasional film, drama and documentary. Clifton and Redland Royal York Crescent, Clifton Renowned for Brunel’s stunning Suspension Bridge and comprising some of the country’s most beautiful residential architecture, Clifton is probably Bristol’s best-known area. It is also the most exclusive, with high demand for property and prices to match. The area can be divided into three neighbourhoods - Clifton Wood (described above), Clifton Village with its boutique shopping and Whiteladies Road, all of which enjoy an ample selection of bars, restaurants and shops. The Whiteladies Road area is the more urban and ‘studenty’ of the districts, with a higher proportion of flats but, as with the rest of Clifton, the streets are wide and the buildings grand and spacious. You will find a range of Georgian, Regency and Edwardian terraces, many of which have been converted into modern townhouses Clifton and flats. 3 Just the other side of Whiteladies Road, easily affordable.

MASTER, M.A. Edited by Robert J Evered 1 Nailsea and District Local History Society thanks Robert J Evered for offering this transcription of Master’s History of Flax Bourton. Although the parish is just outside our normal area of interest it seems churlish not to make it available to those whose interests occasionally wander beyond parish boundaries.

It must not be reproduced or passed to a third party without written permission of the copyright holders 2 FLAX BOURTON Occupying the centre of a fertile valley, which extends from the river Avon at Bristol on the East to the Bristol Channel between Clevedon and Weston-Super-Mare on the West, and bounded on the North and South by picturesque well-wooded ranges of mountain limestone resting upon red sandstone, the Parish of Flax Bourton, notwithstanding its insignificance in size and importance, as compared with its adjoining neighbours, is rich in natural advantages. I note with approval the colour of its soil, and recal the satisfactory testimony to its value of no less an authority than Dr. Buckland, who, speaking to our Society in 1849, assured his audience that “let the soil be red and the soil will never be bad; let gentlemen buy their estates, and not sell them, upon the red soil.”1 The area of the Parish, comprising only 590 acres,2 includes the beautiful limestone gorge known as Bourton Combe, with its grey precipices on either side, indigenous yew and elder trees growing out of the crannies of the stone, while from the summit is an extensive prospect, the city of Bristol, with the ranges of Dundry and Lansdown, the Bristol Channel, and the mountains of Wales, the slopes of Clevedon and Ashton, and the hanging woods of nearer Tyntesfield.
