Frampton's industrial skyline
The tower of a late 18th/early 19th century windmill stands close to a chimney. The tower is now a residential property, which is Grade II listed and remains one of the best examples left in Britain.

Zion Chapel, Frampton Cotterell
The area was without a church for many years, so a group of interested people gathered to propose that one be built. There are records of visits by George Whitfield and one of the Wesley brothers in previous times that may have added weight to the plans. Land was secured and foundations laid in 1794, with the chapel opened a few months after, at a cost of £353/3/7 and one halfpenny. However, even with a few alterations it was outgrown and a new church was built in 1873 at a cost of £1557/15/7d.

A narrow final resting place
The burial ground of the Zion chapel is a very narrow strip running south. It is now hemmed in on all sides by modern housing. The grounds appear to have always been this shape, dating from hundreds of years ago.
