Background

History

Coal was mined in the area in the 19th century. To the south there is a quarry, which has been reactivated. The neighbourhood was developed in the 1990s and early 21st century on farmland formerly in the parish of Mangotsfield. A science and technology park, in conjunction with Bristol University and University of the West of England, has been built on an area of land adjacent to the M4 motorway and the A4174 ring road.
