Grounded for good
This 1930s pub was once the 'Happy Landings' - a reference to the nearby old Whitchurch Airport, formerly the principal airport for Bristol. It had a fairly mixed history, having closed and re-opened but latterly closing for good. The property lay shut for a few years before being redeveloped as flats.

Ravenhead Drive, where once were riders
Today's modern housing belies the recent past. In the 1950s this was the site of the old Knowle speedway and greyound track. This part was the top bend of the speedway, where riders would slide around towards the far end of the present road. Just beyond were kennels.
