No one knows for certain when Bristol was founded. What we do know
is that for more than 1,000 years it has been at the centre of
national and international history. From its earliest days
Bristol's prosperity was linked to its port, with the importation
of wine and tobacco and its involvement with the slave trade. In
those days, explorers sailed from Bristol on epic voyages and
discovered new lands. In more recent times its economy has been
built on creative media and the aerospace industry, including the
construction of Concorde, the world's first supersonic aircraft.
From the Avon Gorge's formation, Iron Age settlers and Norman
castle construction, to civil war, riots and bus boycotts, The
Little History of Bristol is guaranteed to enthral both residents
and visitors alike.
