Stapleton Bristol Map

About Stapleton

Stapleton rests, a quiet corner of Bristol, where the land begins its gentle descent towards the Avon. It lies 3.5 km south-south-east of Filton (from Filton: bearing 159°T, OS grid ST 615 759), and is situated south-west of Broomhill village. The air here often carries a certain stillness, a quality that seems to absorb the hurried footsteps of the nearby city, allowing the rustle of leaves in the ancient hedgerows to speak a more ancient language. Fields, often a patchwork of greens and golds depending on the season, stretch outwards, their boundaries marked by trees that have witnessed generations of passing carts and more modern vehicles alike. A particular beauty can be found in the late afternoon light, when it slants across the rooftops, catching the varied textures of brick and tile, and casting long, soft shadows that give the lanes a fleeting, painterly quality. The very soil of Stapleton, it feels, remembers the quiet industry of its past, though now it offers a more pastoral repose.
