Bristol is one of the best cities in the world for exploring on
foot and the Severn Beach Line - once hailed as one of Britain's
most scenic railways - is the gateway to some of its finest sights.
The walks in this guide range from short strolls exploring Georgian
crescents and city parks to all-day excursions through ancient
woodlands, eighteenth-century estates and spectacular river gorges.
Among the places visited are St Anne's Woods, Arno's Vale, the
Floating Harbour, Royate Hill, the Frome Valley, St Paul's,
Kingsdown, Montpelier, Redland and Cotham, St Werburgh's, Purdown,
Stoke Park, Frenchay, Oldbury Court, Westbury on Trym, Clifton and
Hotwells, Leigh Woods, Coombe Dingle, Blaise Castle, Kingsweston,
Bishop's Knoll, Pill and Paradise Bottom, Patchway and the Three
Brooks, and Ashton Court, while the final walk heads from Severn
Beach over the Severn Bridge to the Wales Coast Path. With a brief
history of the Severn Beach Line and a description of a journey
along it, this book is an indispensable companion not only for
anyone lucky enough to live near the line, but also for anyone who
can catch a train to Bristol and explore it from there.
