Hannah More (1745-1833) was born here in what was once a school (headed by her father) beside to the entrance to Fishponds parish church. She was a poet, playwright, novelist and educationalist but her main claim to lasting fame was her support for the abolition of slavery. See http://www.brycchancarey.com/abolition/more.htm
