Park Place, Bristol
A triangular square (is that possible?), with a listed terrace "c1790 ... possibly by William Paty" https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1282199 along its eastern side.

Subsidence or mismatch?
Whatever has caused the two sides of the door to be so poorly aligned with one another, the result is a spectacularly sloping top edge to the door (your photographer was upright!) The unusual circular panes in window and door and the vermiculated carving of the stonework are repeated in other houses along this side of the street (Dover Place).

Steps from Meridian Place
Footpath BCC 290/20 is a listed set of steps and walls leading down to Meridian Vale: "Mid C19. Pennant rubble and flags. A series of steps, cobbled each side between rubble walls, doglegged to the SW at the bottom into Meridian Vale" https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1025021 . But, perhaps oddly, the path and steps have no individual name that I can find.

Mr Swanton's Barber Shop, Bristol
A little research suggests this is a barber's with very "traditional" values. The premises are one of two buildings (part of Bruton Place, a listed terrace https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1202029 of six) that curve around a corner of Park Place, whose trees are in the background.

Former Roman Catholic pro-cathedral, Bristol
"Greek Revival-style 1834 work, Northern Italian Gothic Revival-style for 1870 alterations and school" https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1202410 . The earlier work was by H E Goodridge, the later by C Hansom. Pevsner (1958) uses the adjectives "strange" and "alarming". See also http://www.churchcrawler.co.uk/procath.htm . The building later became the Bristol Waldorf School and is now being converted into flats.

Former Pro-cathedral of the Holy Apostles
The original building to the rear was begun in 1834 to a Greek temple design http://www.churchcrawler.co.uk/procath.htm , but shifting foundations stopped work in 1845. The revised design of 1870 by Hansom included a much lighter structure for the main church and the addition of the complete north (liturgically west) end. After the new Clifton Cathedral was opened in the 1970s, it became a school, then later a store and finally unoccupied. Following threats of demolition, it has finally found a new life as a conversion into student flats. Listed Grade II.
