The much-changing face of Old Market

The area is historically just outside the old town of Bristol and where markets were held, suitably outside the jurisdiction. Consequently, affairs could get a little out of hand on occasions. Now the place is very much part of Bristol's heartland but the faint air of revelry and misrule still lingers. Fortunes have come and gone, and perhaps will return again one day. Meanwhile, the present face is one of colourful transience.
