House of Charity, Industrial School and Chapel (1890-1902).

Redcatch Road, which dates from about 1920 and was designated the B3122 later in the 1920s. It became one of the routes from the Wells Road westwards towards Lower Knowle, Windmill Hill and Bedminster. On the 1904 OS map of Knowle, Redcatch Lane is shown linking St.John's Lane in Lower Knowle to the Wells Road, with associated buildings at the House of Charity (1890), Warden's Lodge, Chapel (1902) and Industrial School. Today, the House of Charity is St.Saviour's House and St.Peter's Hospice occupies the remaining buildings.

Perrett's Park was opened around 1900, at a time when the southern Bristol suburb of Knowle was expanding either side of the Wells Road. With an area of just six hectares, it remains a popular open space in the locality, with steep slopes providing plenty of sledging in the harsher winters.

A series of short 19th century terraces on the east side of Victoria Park, between St.John's Lane and Hill Avenue. From north to south the streets are: Montgomery, Mardyke, Monmouth, Merioneth, Maidstone, Water Lane, Margate, Nottingham and Newport, or right to left in the photograph.

Victoria Park on the north-east side of Windmill Hill. It was opened in 1891 on a sloping site and is the largest municipal park in south Bristol (20 hectares). The image shows the well-laid out paths in the park and a bowling green and tennis courts have been added to the amenities.

Bonded Wills Warehouse, one of three built by the tobacco company between 1905 and 1914, which remain significant elements of the townscape in the 21st century as Grade II Listed buildings.

Bedminster, an industrial part of Bristol from 1897, which grew up as a Somerset town in the 19th century, from 3,000 in 1801 to 78,000 in 1881, based on coal, tanneries, glue, paper, metal smelting and the famous tobacco company of WD & HO Wills.
