Old Market
Old Market is the traditional trading hub of Bristol and is still known in part as a commercial area. It's right next to the city centre, just down the road from Cabot Circus, across from Castle Park. After numerous developments, it's now a popular place to live for urbanites.

Old Market is a lively and vibrant area and, since its redevelopment in the post-war years, it's become the centre for Bristol’s LGBTQ+ community.
