Clifton Suspension Bridge, Bristol

One of Bristol's most beautiful landmarks with a rich history. The bridge is still fully operational today. Go and have a look. There is a very informative little museum on one site of the bridge with a small lift that will help wheelchair users go up to the second floor. The full history and how the bridge was built is on display. Stunning to see.

Brilliant piece of Bristol's history, definitely a must see if you're visiting Bristol. It's very close to Clifton village which has loads of brilliant shops, cafes and bars. And it's quite close to Leigh woods and the Downs if you fancy a long walk. The toilets close to there are a little grimy though.... I'd recommend using facilities somewhere else!

Iconic Bristol landmark offering views along the valley and over part of the city. The visitor centre offers a glimpse of the history of the bridge and other potential designs. There's also a number of activities to keep children occupied for a while, we had fun building different styles of bridges and finding out what happened when you pull the keystone out of an arch! It's a fairly busy road and quite blustery but definitely worth a quick visit if you're in the area.

As a local we do not always appreciate what is on our doorstep, and I have crossed this great bridge many a time on walks in and around Bristol. Pedestrians and cyclists are free and there is a charge for cars (hence a toll bridge) You can walk over both sides, with a good view of the gorge on one side and the road system on the other side with the old bond warehouses The bridge is run by a trust and has to rely on tolls to help pay for the costs of this great Bristol icon!! The visitor centre is FREE and is on the Leigh Woods side They have recently replaced the toll booths which look good Free toilets on the Clifton side Great views of the bridge can also be seen when you come in on the train from the south and looks great in winter when it is lite

An awesome piece of engineering, well worth a close up visit. Best done by foot with lots of viewpoints along the way. A nice bit of green park up at the top with lots of dog walkers and trees. There is a Cafe with amazing views and loos.(!)
