Easton info
Easton is an inner city area
of the city of Bristol in the United Kingdom.
Informally the area is considered to stretch east
of Bristol city centre and the M32 motorway, centred
around Lawrence Hill. Its northern and eastern
borders are less defined, merging into St Phillips
Marsh and Eastville. The area includes the Lawrence
Hill and Barton Hill estates.
Formally Easton is administratively made up of
the electoral wards of Easton and part of Lawrence
Hill. It is located within the Bristol East constituency.
The Census 2001 reports Easton has a younger
average age than that of England and Wales, and
that around 35% of the population are of Black
or Asian origin. This figure rises towards Lawrence
Hill.
Easton is one of the most deprived areas in the
South West of England, with the Lawrence Hill
ward the most deprived ward in the region and
one of the most deprived in Britain. This has
resulted in the area being granted European Union
objective 2 status and '[New Deal for Communities]'
status by the UK government which is only granted
to the very worst performing urban wards.
British crime statistics do not go to ward level
but the perception in Bristol is that Easton has
a high crime rate, especially in relation to knife,
violent crime and robberies.
Despite these problems, or perhaps because of
them, Easton is a vibrant community with many
local community and pressure groups, local bands,
political groups and some anarchist communes.
It also has three separate Mosques, a Synagogue,
a Sikh Temple and several churches of different
denominations. In the northern part of Easton
market research information also confirms perceptions
of higher than average current affairs interests,
high rates of those educated to degree level and
higher rates than average of those working in
the public sector.
St Marks Road in northern Easton includes one
of Britain’s highest rated Vegetarian restaurants
(by the British Vegetarian Society 2004) as well
as Moroccan and Indian sub continent restaurants
and shops specialising in organic and ethnic foods,
further reinforcing the areas reputation as 'alternative'.
Transport
Easton has two local rail stations, Lawrence
Hill and Stapleton road which are serviced by
trains on the Severn Beach line but lie on the
main line to Wales the Midlands, Scotland and
London. The M32 motorway marks the border of Easton
to the north. The A4320 dual carriageway also
cuts the area in two.
About Bristol
Bristol is an English city and
county and one of the two administrative centres
of South West England (the other being Plymouth).
From its earliest days, its prosperity has been
linked to that of the Port of Bristol, the commercial
port which originated in the city centre, but
which has now migrated to the Bristol Channel
coast. Bristol extends to this coast and includes
Avonmouth, where much of the current port is located.
Notable areas in and surrounding the city include
Clifton, Filton and Patchway. (These last two
areas are outside the present city boundary, in
South Gloucestershire.)
Bristol is England's eighth, and the United Kingdom's
eleventh, most populous city. It had been, for
half a century, the second largest English city
after London,
until the rapid rise of Liverpool, Manchester
and Birmingham, in the 1780s.
