Description

The Downs are part of what makes Bristol probably the Greenest City in the British Isles.

The Downs draw people from all over the City and across the world.

For walking and cycling and picnicking, and gigging and celebrating and protesting and so on and so on.

The Downs has a long and rich history.

Why not join us for another Walk in the Past and discover the origins of this open space, the first aircraft flight, an agricultural show and the tale of a murderous highwayman and what became of him.

Starting Point

The Jersey Lily, BS8 2SB
