This illustrated history portrays one of England's finest cities.
It provides a nostalgic look at Bristol's past and highlights the
special character of some of its most important historic sites. The
photographs are taken from the Historic England Archive, a unique
collection of over 12 million photographs, drawings, plans and
documents covering England's archaeology, architecture, social and
local history. Pictures date from the earliest days of photography
to the present and cover subjects from Bronze Age burials and
medieval churches to cinemas and seaside resorts. Historic England:
Bristol shows the city as it once was, from its streets, squares
and parks to its famous old docks. Brycgstow, 'the place at the
bridge', as the Saxon founders of Bristol once called it, is a city
of destiny. Once the second port in the country and one of the
wealthiest cities in Britain, it has enjoyed centuries of
prosperity based on manufacturing, seafaring and trade. In their
stead Bristol has become a thriving national centre for financial
and business services, aerospace and advanced engineering, ICT
media and creative industries. Bristol truly is one of the
country's greatest cities and this book will help you discover its
colourful and fascinating history.
