The Flowerpot is dated 1890 and was one of several pubs on this part of Kingswood's main road. However, times have changed, lots of old pubs have either been demolished and replaced or converted into residential use. The Flowerpot was closed in 2017, with a concerted effort to convert it into a child care nursery loudly condemned by locals. Despite that planning being granted consent, it has not happened and the old pub has now been taken over by Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Gurmat Vidhyala (Bristol), formerly known as Bristol Gurmat Class. The Sikh organisation is looking to create a community facility and learning centre.
