Learn more about hotels in Redcliffe

Redcliffe, a noteworthy district of the lively port city of Bristol, carries the unique distinction of blending serene nature with riveting history. Its name is drawn from the red sandstone cliffs that line the southern edge of the Floating Harbour, acting as an impressive backdrop to this vibrant urban space. Beehive-like formations within these cliffs known as the Redcliffe Caves were historically used for sand extraction and storage, adding an element of fascination to its geology.

A symbol of the district, the parish church of St. Mary Redcliffe, proudly owns one of Bristol's best known spires. Soaring at an impressive 292 ft, it ranks as the second tallest building in the city. Originally, Redcliffe was part of the manor of Bedminster and was separated from Bristol by the Avon. However, it was officially incorporated into Bristol in 1373, enhancing its significance.

Centuries have witnessed Redcliffe's exponential growth, from the booming weaving, fulling and dyeing industries in early times, up to the construction of the world's first shot tower by William Watts in 1782. Even today, Redcliffe continues to showcase Bristol's dynamism, blending history, architecture, and thriving urban life in a captivating dance of wonder.
