St Andrews info
St Andrews is a suburb of Bristol,
England situated about 3 km (1.8 miles) north
of the city centre. The area was developed in
the late 19th century as St Andrew's Park Estate,
and consists mostly of large Victorian villas,
with some inter-war housing and some rebuilding
following enemy action in World War II.
The area is roughly bounded by the Severn Beach
railway line, Gloucester Rd, Somerville Rd and
Cromwell Rd; however as is often the case the
boundary is debatable: According to the Ordnance
Survey map this area is Montpelier, whereas according
to the National Gazetteer of 1868 Montpelier is
a hamlet within the Parish of St Andrew's. St
Andrew's church, which gave the area its name,
was in St Andrew's Road, Montpelier. It was demolished
in 1969.
In the middle part of the 20th century the area
became unfashionable and many of the houses were
converted to multiple occupation. However during
the 1990s living in the city centre became fashionable
once again and consequently these houses are now
being converted back into family homes, their
owners once again taking pride in them and restoring
their period features.
The area is centred on St Andrew's Park, a pleasant
west-facing park laid out in 1895, which is home
to events such as 'Music in the Park' during the
summer, and 'Carols in the Park' at Christmas.
St Andrews is well served by public transport,
with frequent buses to all parts of the city and
an hourly train service from Montpelier to Bristol
Temple Meads, Clifton and Avonmouth. Gloucester
Road is home to a large array of traditional and
specialist shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants.
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.
