The new redevelopment of the Redcliffe Street/Thomas Street area has revealed some interesting remains. Redcliffe is now very much part of the old city of Bristol. but was for centuries a separate settlement on the south side of the River Avon. Slowly, the influence and industries spread and took hold here until the inevitable amalgamation. What lies here are many building foundations, waste pits and associated structures that can be dated back to the twelfth century - all part of the story of Redcliffe.
