Ward profiles 2021: Lockleaze â âThe key strength in this area is the peopleâ
By Ellie Pipe, Friday Apr 16, 2021
The rolling green fields and woodlands of Stoke Park seem to stretch for miles below where small clusters of people amble across the Grade II-listed estate.
Stepping away from the everyday traffic and bustle of Romney Avenue, the 270-acre space is a haven for wildlife and residents from across Bristol.
Home to the distinctive yellow Dower House and Purdown Tower â a BTÂ telecommunications post â the estate on the edge of Lockleaze is one of the first sights that greets people arriving into the city along the M32.
