A collaboration with Lockleaze Neighbourhood Trust, Bristol City Council and Steve England Outdoor Learning.
We are working together to promote community conversations about your heritage conservation priorities and which access improvements are needed for Stoke Park.
Thank you to the 29 residents who joined us for the first event of 2026 The History of Stoke Park this weekend. The weather was amazing as we spent the morning together learning more about the fascinating history and the many amazing heritage features-most unrecognised but in plain sight.
“I’ve been coming here since I was a child and I didn’t know most of this!”
We learnt about the ancient woodlands, saw the old boundary markers, explored overgrown buildings and learnt all about pillow mounds. We visited both tunnels and saw the drainage ditches whilst following the serpentine paths.
“What an interesting talk and tour, thank you for such an entertaining morning”
As usual we finished the walk and talk with a discussion about the importance of this project and how the events and surveys are supporting people to join the conversation to capture your priorities. Please don’t forget to complete your feedback.
“Good to be part of this, working together to make sure the history and all the features will be here for future generations”
“Excited to hear about the upcoming Heritage Trail map”
Whether you’ve taken part in a walk or not, you can do a quick survey on conservation in Stoke Park HERE. Thank you!
