'Medieval market,' 'bustling High Street', 'wild west 'a wasteland,
'massage parlours' 'gay area' 'up and coming.' Old Market conjures
a myriad of conflicting associations in the minds of
Bristolians...There is some truth to all these associations. They
reveal the story of Old Market's brightest hour as part of
Bristol's shopping Golden Mile, the turbulent inter-war years, the
impact of war, post war decline brought on by housing road and
retail redevelopment, rejuvenation by sexual and ethnic minority
groups. Vice and Virtue details each phase, introducing the reader
to the people, the institutions and the processes that have created
Old Market's rich heritage. The title is a playful nod to complex
and interlinked themes that have defined this area for centuries.
