2009 : Urban into rural, New Cheltenham to Siston Common
Nearly at the point where east Bristol's sprawling housing estates become open countryside. (Officially this is Gloucestershire, the Bristol boundary is about a mile west of here.)
The roundabout to the right is at the eastern end of Cheltenham Road which gives way to Fisher Road on the other side.

2009 : Roundabout at the end of Cheltenham Road
The eastern end, that is. New Cheltenham gives way to Siston Common on the other side of the roundabout as Cheltenham Road becomes Fisher Road.
Anchor Road is to the left and Tenniscourt Road to the right. Both of these roads were named after public houses (or vice versa).

Made-for-Ever church, Kingswood
This 1896 Wesleyan Methodist church on Anchor Road shares a name with the nearby pub shown in Image From http://churchdb.gukutils.org.uk/GLS1401.php : "According to the Wordsworth Dictionary of Pub Names, by David Rothwell, "this area is known locally as 'Made for ever' because of a remark made by two miners, Lewis and Fudge, who discovered a huge deposit of coal and exclaimed 'We're made for ever' " ".

2009 : Anchor Made for Ever, New Cheltenham
Well, for the time being anyway.
Was unsure if they were still open but they are on a real ale website.
"250-year old two-bar pub, rumoured to have a residential ghost. Name came from
coal miners who thought they would be 'made forever' financially. Bass direct
from the cellar in summer."

A prickly passing place
The narrow single carriageway road on Siston Common needs a little better for motorists! No problem for a tractor, though.

The old route of the Dramway
This open patch of land seems a rather uninspiring place for a bench seat, being in a rather quiet and unremarkable part of Siston Common. However, just beyond it was the route of the old Dramway - a horse-drawn railway line linking the local collieries with the River Avon to the south.
