This has turned out to be one of my favourite channels on youtube. Keep up the good work!

Walked past this all the time on the way to Asda and never knew about its history, just that it was picturesque! Glad I found this channel before I go back to visit the city again

The joys of watching this channel whilst living in Bristol and seemingly walking through the areas these videos are about at the same time they are uploaded

Thanks for that, interesting as ever. On one of the coloured houses is an unobtrusive plaque stating that it shows the border between Gloucestershire and Somerset in the past. One of the reasons that 'heresy ' flourished in Bristol was because, if you got into trouble with the church authorities (based in Gloucester) you could just pop across the river and be in a different jurisdiction.

ooh I never noticed that plaque, or figured out where the pre-C19th-reform border was, so that's interesting. I knew Redcliffe was Bristol but Bedminster was still Somerset, but not any more exactly

Really interesting as ever. That was new to me. You mentioned Robinsons warehouse and it would be good to see some docs on the important industries of Bristol - tobacco, chocolate, sherry, printing etc. They have left an architectural footprint on the City as well as shaping the lives of so many Bristolians. In the Seventies it seemed that everyone was employed in one of those and the factories were scattered all over the place. Do keep them coming!

definitely, Pete. I have occasionally filmed some of the wills factories already with this in mind but want the scaffolding to come off factory no.1 ideally so its been more of a back burner thing.

Naphtha is the basis for petroleum fuel and oil paints. Gasoline is mostly naphtha.

According to a number of documents of the time, the 'United' was a schooner, not a ketch.

Naphtha is the thing Lars Ulrich had a meltdown over huh?
