My website contains stories and archive photographs which present a survey of life in Bristol and its districts over the past 100 years. This website recalls houses and public buildings, shops, factories, schools and pubs that have vanished or been changed almost beyond all recognition. The Photographs show changing types of transport and fashion, and the developing character of streets and districts as they took on the form that is familiar today. Bristol, like other large cities in Britain, has greatly changed over the years. Old buildings have been pulled down for modernisation, and roads have been widened. Athough some areas are completely unrecognisable, some features still remain, and are a focal point, especially for younger Bristolians who don't remember the 1950s, let alone the pre-war days.
