A green crown on Farleigh Green
An open space with a pavilion features a rather splendid tree that has formed a crown-like appearance. It lies on the site of the west wing of the former Bedminster Union Workhouse of the nineteenth century. Most of that institution was still used as a hospital for many years before being converted into residential use.

St George's church
This church was built in 1860 as part of the adjoining poorhouse. John Norton produced the design with William Gibbs (of the nearby Tyntesfield estate) providing the funding. The inmates would have worshipped here but now the church is no longer in use. It's now on the open market as a remarkable office property with an asking price of around £625,000.

Flax Bourton village hall
A modern facility, this hall boasts room for 200 standing, with kitchen and changing facilities. Originally Farleigh Green village hall, it was taken under the control of Flax Bourton Parish Council in 2007. In order to establish a community presence, a small group of residents formed a Community Interest Company - named Flax Bourton Village Hall CIC. The Council agreed to lease the hall to them for a minimum period of three years and so far it has proved a popular move.

One form of work or another
This is Farleigh Court, now a commercial estate with a number of individual companies based here. However, this particular building has a different past: it was built in 1837-8 as Bedminster Union Poor House. After the passing of the Poor Act, the commissioners raised some £6,600 to establish a significant institution to deal with the needy and destitute of south Bristol and other areas. George Gilbert Scott and William Bonython Moffatt were engaged to design the blocks (as they had with other poorhouses) to hold some 300 inmates. In 1899 the governors renamed it as Long Ashton Union and its intake of the poor continued until 1929. It then became Cambridge House, a mental health treatment facility. In 1956 it was renamed Farleigh Hospital, but in 1971 a couple of nurses working there blew the whistle on the scandalous way some vulnerable patients were treated and it was closed. However, in 2005 it was converted into a small industrial and commercial estate, with much of the impressive architecture being retained as a testament to those who had passed its gates.
