Footbridge to cross Bristol dock linking millennium square and muddock

Excellent stop, really busy so be patient.

I road from Bath to Caldicot South Wales last summer on this route, amazing calm journey to Bristol, stopped off at the old railway building for a coffee on the way. Excellent path to be fair, even for a Saturday, only about 40 or so at the old station stop, but no issues with riding, peaceful to be fair.

If you absolutely want to hang your love lock in Bristol, this bridge is the right place for you.

Grade II listed building, listed in 1984. It stands within the South Gloucestershire county, not "Bristol Proper," although it is (at least nowadays) very much a part of Bristol. When this was constructed in 1788, it was in the "Parish of Chipping Sodbury," but as time went on & the population grew in the mid - latter ¼ of the 20th century, Bristol expanded exponentially northwards. Lots of old parishes & what would have been small villages, such as Frenchay, have now become part of the city. The bridge itself is stunning. There is an old plaque reading that the bridge "is unsafe to carry a weight beyond 6 tons." It's in a really pretty area, right in the suburbs (well, urban sprawl! In Bristol, it's pretty hard to tell where one area starts and ends!) But, you can easily feel miles away from the noise & and built-up areas not far from here. The weekends at Oldbury Court / Vassals & Snuff Mills are really horrendously busy, if possible, I'd advise visiting on a weekday.

Lovely paved path following the stream

Queen's Square is a Georgian square near Bristol's city centre. Between the 1930s and 1991 a main road went through the middle, but a successful Lottery bid for funding allowed it to be restored to it's 1817 layout. In the centre of the square is an equestrian statue of William III by John Michael Rysbrack, cast in 1733 and erected in 1736.
