Upper Knowle Bristol Map

About Upper Knowle

Upper Knowle presents a tranquil aspect, a quiet eddy in the flow of the wider city. It lies 3.4 km south-east of Bristol (from Bristol: bearing 128°T, OS grid ST 610 707), and is situated north of Whitchurch village. The gentle slope of the land here, catching the afternoon sun, can lend a particular softness to the brickwork of its homes, a subtle warmth that seems to soak into the very air. Though firmly part of the urban sprawl, a sense of its own distinct character persists, perhaps in the way the mature trees along its residential streets arch over the pavements, creating fleeting, leafy tunnels. The nearby green spaces offer a breath of something older, a reminder of the fields that once defined this landscape, their quietude a gentle counterpoint to the distant hum of the city.
