Bristol City Centre (Castle Park)
This image shows Castle Park (Image dated 1988) Once an area of medieval buildings and streets in the centre of Bristol which were blitzed in the 1940's during WWII and totally destroyed. This site is also the land on which the original Bristol Castle was built.
Bristol Castle was a Norman castle built for the defence of Bristol. Remains can be seen today in Castle Park near the Broadmead Shopping Centre, including the sally port. Built during the reign of William the Conqueror, and later owned by Robert FitzHamon, it later became an important royal castle and happened to be the scene of several imprisonments and executions. Several fortifications and additions to the castle were made between the 12th–13th century under Robert of Gloucester and King Henry III. It was mostly neglected by the 16th century and torn down in 1656 under orders from Oliver Cromwell. It was one of the largest Norman Castles ever built.
Now, as can be seen from this image it has become a recreational area for the city, with parklands, walks, and rest areas, retaining it's strong links with a troubled and historic past....
