Bristol City Centre and Harbour
Monday Afternoon 9th January 2023
Following on from 'University of Bristol – St Michaels Hill' posted January 12, 2023 and still pursued by that chilling wind.
The next Port of call was the Bristol Harbour area
Which is next to the City Centre, which is built over the River Frome
Walking from the Centre we took the left side quay past the old Unicorn Hotel with it distinctive V motif architecture carpark.
Over the foot bridge, which now supports a myriad of padlocks, to the opposite side and the, almost obligatory, big wheel attraction.
Looking left from the bridge is the Arnolfini (Bristol's Centre for International Contemporary Arts); the riverboat Ferry station; and, docked near to the M-Shed Museam [which, at the time of writing, is free to enter], is The Balmoral – 'Britain's Famous Pleasure Steamer'.
Crossing Anchor Road and up the steps to College Green.
Where opposite is the brick building that is – Bristol Council House
And to the left facing is: Bristol Cathedral. I've always found it odd that there seems to be no land or grounds to the Cathedral's frontage, just straight on to the pavement!
If you'd like to see a set of sixteen images, [you'll need to scroll past the first eight pictures, which are from a previous trip], I've included a link to my Snap.As 'Broadmead Bristol' gallery below.
