Trinity Road park
A small patch of green is largely surrounded by the busy roads of east Bristol, and contains little more than a circular path and trees. It is an area that has not been touched by the city planners, having remained unblemished by the spade. However, just next door used to be the old (and notorious) Lawford's Gate prison, established in the early 1800s but demolished around the end of the century, becoming a police station.

St Nicholas of Tolentino church
The church was founded in the earlier part of the 1800s, and has been extended on occasions since. Beside it used to be a school in the past, which is now replaced by some modern housing that crowds the old church rather.
