2011 : A4174 Avon Ring Road

Image: © Maurice Pullin Taken: 2 May 2011

This stretch of the Avon "Ring" Road is in a sort of limbo between Moorend, Downend, Bromley Heath and Blackhorse. You pays yer money and you takes yer choice. A Sainsbury delivery vehicle is about to pass under a footbridge at the end of Aintree Drive. Marked on OS Explorer map 155 as a bridleway so you could take horses over there. Named the Avon Ring Road when Bristol was renamed "Avon". Common sense has since prevailed and Bristol was renamed back again, but the name has stuck.
