Going back in time
The new redevelopment of the Redcliffe Street/Thomas Street area has revealed some interesting remains. Redcliffe is now very much part of the old city of Bristol. but was for centuries a separate settlement on the south side of the River Avon. Slowly, the influence and industries spread and took hold here until the inevitable amalgamation. What lies here are many building foundations, waste pits and associated structures that can be dated back to the twelfth century - all part of the story of Redcliffe.

As part of the ever-ongoing redevelopment of Redcliffe, the demolition of old warehouses and offices often reveal older foundations - some dating back centuries. Archaeologists move in to explore for a while until the workers arrive to start the reinterring. Compare this shot with Image

Learning about the distant past
A passer-by stops in Redcliffe Street; the once-familiar warehouses and offices are largely cleared now, allowing a glimpse at the earlier ground level. Having removed the topsoil too, construction was stopped to allow archaeologists time to delve deeper into the foundations. Most of this part of Bristol, close to Bristol Bridge, is post-war redevelopment that is now itself being redeveloped. But going into the ground has brought older foundations to light - some going back centuries. See Image

St Thomas overshadowed
St Thomas the Martyr was founded in the fourteenth century, with many new additions in the 1790s - long before the twentieth century crowded in. Soon the twenty-first century will be moving in too when the cleared site is developed. See Image] to get a better perspective on the redevelopment site.

Iteration of the past
Some of the new buildings have been selectively styled to blend in with the old wharf warehouses of the past. Both are now residential.
