Elm Lane & Malvern House
Image: © Gordon Hatton Taken: 24 May 2017
In the 1960's this was an area dominated by buildings belonging to Redland College, a teacher training establishment associated with Bristol University. Behind the stone wall is Malvern House, once a women's hall of residence, and supposedly out of bounds to male students. [No further details necessary.] The modern building glimpsed to the right must be on the site of the former college refectory where many an inedible meal was served up for students, some of which might have been seen escaping to the nearby Chiquita restaurant on Blackboy Hill.
