ported the project enthusiastically and a small team of Hotwells residents and
our local Councillors relentlessly chipped away at official complacency. Now
there is the makings of a partnership between local people and the City coun-
cil to work on a plan to improve Hotwells largest open space.
A major problem with progressing our campaign to renovate the site has been getting
anyone to make decisions when responsibility is split between several Council depart-
ments. A recent meeting of Service Directors heading departments of Environment & Lei-
sure, Traffic and Transport, Planning and Neighbourhoods has now agreed “that each of
us would ensure that we support and put forward officers who can enable and work with
the community to take forward the Envi-
ronmental Improvements”. They also
agreed to review the progress of the work
and “if needed, provide any further sup-
port”….. “I hope this re-assures you that

Clifton Vale residents’ queue-up to complain about traffic

Local Councillors organised a meeting of Clifton Vale residents at Holy Trinity
Church on March 15th to discuss the ongoing and perhaps worsening traffic on
the hill.
Some residents reported incidents of road rage and damage caused by the high volume of
traffic using the road as a rat-run. The meeting came up with many suggestions including
use of road-tables, speed and weight restrictions, limiting the ability of traffic to turn left
from Hotwell Road at peak times and more double-yellow lines. Surprisingly, many resi-
dents were even ready to consider the idea of one-way working on all or part of the road,
in spite of the inconvenience it might cause. A long term traffic study has been promised
for the area but Councillors were anxious to explore the possibility of some simple solu-
tions that could be implemented quickly and cheaply. However, as with the earlier meet-

ing with Granby Hill residents the warn-

ing that kept being reiterated by Traffic
Department officers was that finding a
solution for one road would inevitably
mean displacing the problem to another
part of the neighbourhood. A point also
emphasised in the Hotwells Traffic Strat-
egy produced by HCCA (see page 2).
The meeting was informed with some
confidence that Bridge Valley Road
would re-open again by June. Days later,
that date was put back to the Autumn;
the latest of several revisions. 1

New cycling development
Confirming this area as an important
hub for cycling in the City, the Coun-
cil has submitted a planning applica-
tion for a ‘Pump Track’ in the space
between Brunel Way and allotments
just a pedal turn or two away from
the end of Ashton Swing Bridge.
Pump tracks are circuits of humps and
bumps for mountain bikes, formed by
landscaping a semi-natural surface. If de-
signed properly, they allow a rider to com-
layout of proposed ‘Pump Track’
....then 3 arrive together!

generated by the initial down hill run.
Consultation has been minimal and HCCA
trustees are concerned that no informa-
tion has been offered about ongoing main-
tenance or identifying a user group to
‘take ownership’ of the facility. However,
if that can be clarified we would support it
as a worthwhile project from the Cycle
City budget. (application ref: 11/00668/

Two Chairs run for the loos
Sarah Gornall, Chair of Trustees at

money to improve the public loos at
St George’s.
Sarah says “I’ve never run a road race be-
fore, so it’s a case of sustained hard work
till May 15. The range of music at St
George’s is amazing – and we’d like to
improve facilities for our valued audiences.
We need to raise £50,000 for all the im-
provements we plan to make this year, so
my aim is to raise £3,000 or more by set-
ting myself this personal challenge.” If you
are interested in music, please sponsor me
and tell your friends to do so too.”
“If you’re a keen runner, join me on May
15th and get your friends and colleagues
to sponsor you. Dennis, our HCCA
Chairman, is already out there training
with Sarah and will be helping to raise
money.
It’s all in aid of improving the public

 Do we need a Community Centre?
For 25 years up until 2001, your Community Association operated a successful community centre at what is
now Hope Chapel. As well as various clubs and classes meetings and local-brewed entertainment, for much of
that time it offered a programme of professional music and theatre which earned Hope Centre a reputation
as a performing arts venue far beyond our immediate neighbourhood.
Before we get too dewy-eyed about past glories, it is worth pointing out
that Hope Centre flourished in an era when the Government paid many
voluntary sector organisations to employ people. It also attracted grant-
aid for maintaining the building from Bristol City Council and money
from South West Arts for the shows that were promoted; all sources
of funding that are nowadays either non-existent or extremely hard to
attract if you do not operate in a socially ‘deprived’ area.

What we miss without one

Undoubtedly the neighbourhood lost a great asset when Hope Centre
closed. The number of community-sponsored events and activities de-
clined; largelydue to the lack of a suitable venue. It is difficult even now
to arrange meetings of more than a handful of people anywhere in Hot-
wells or Clifton. The annual Hotwells Pantomime, which began life as a
fund-raiser for Hope Centre only survives because Hope Church is gen-
erously prepared to tolerate having its building overrun for a week once
a year.
Is a community centre still relevant today?
In spite of the difficulties, many people feel there is a Hope Centre
shaped hole at the heart of this community and would love to see a new
‘facility’ of some kind, operated by and for local people. Somewhere that could be used by
groups wanting to meet and people wanting to learn or have fun. However, the world has
changed since the days of Hope Centre and we probably need to think about a new model
for a community building. Do people still want to go to small scale theatre shows in Hot-
wells with nearby Tobacco Factory and the The Brewery filling that niche so successfully? Fewer people are prepared to turn
out for public meetings when most of that networking role has been taken over by the internet. We mustn’t forget, also, that
many of the people who threw their energies into creating and sustaining Hope Centre are now retired or moving towards
retirement. Is there a new model for a community centre that will capture the imagination of a younger generation prepared
to put in the effort to make it work?
A new model for a community-run building
Rather than a large public hall, perhaps a more flexible range of smaller spaces would
be more useful, where clubs and classes could afford to operate for a realistic charge,
including activities for older people and teenagers. This might be combined with a
bar, café or shop operated to provide an income to maintain the building and provide
a core centre for social life that is open most days and evenings. A heritage exhibi-
tion or art gallery might bring in visitors from a wider area. With care, we could ar-
rive at a formula which encourages more people to find entertainment and relaxation
locally in the neighbourhood and complements, rather than competes with ex-
isting local shops, pubs and restaurants.

Some questions to ask of you

Whether you are someone who’s lived here for years or relatively new to the
area, a family with children, a couple or a one person household; if it were pos-
sible to set up, would a community building work? What should it be offering?
How do we make it financially sustainable with little or no public funding?
Would it actually help to improve life for people in this neighbourhood?
This is not an entirely theoretical debate. Your Community Association
could work actively to make something happen if it seems likely to receive
broad support. Your views are critical. It would be good to hear them and
publish some of your ideas in a future edition of this newspaper.

 Open Spaces
Friends of Brandon Hill
Brandon Hill is one of Bristol’s most dramatic open
spaces. All the more important for being located in
the heart of the City and the nearest ‘green lung’ for
many people in Cliftonwood. There is an active sup-
port group for the Park and some interesting pro-
jects looking for your support.
Renovation of the old bowling green area
Friends of Brandon Hill have been working on a design for
the renovation of the old bowling green area on Brandon
Hill. After the completion of questionnaires, talking to people
in the park, and receiving feedback from many throughout
the community, it is apparent that they wish is to keep the
only flat area on the hill available for as many activities for as
many people as possible. An outline plan for improving the
area has been produced based on the feedback received to
date. (see details on page 7 of an open air ‘Midsummer
Nights Dream’ in this space in May).

Community Orchard
Would you like to be part of a city centre orchard; help with
the planting and maintenance of the trees and benefit from
the fruit of your labours? Friends of Brandon Hill are cur-
rently planning an orchard and looking for people interested
in getting it up and running. We have secured some initial
funding for the project. We intend to purchase trees over
the next couple of months so they can mature over the sum-
mer. We are looking for help in determining species and va-
rieties of fruit trees that will do well in the park. The plant-
ing is planned for November.
Herb Garden
More funds are being sought to create the herb garden. The
first two meetings are planned for those interested in helping
with the project on Tuesday 12th April and Tuesday
10th May at 18:30 next to the depot on Brandon Hill.
If you have an interest in orchards or their produce and
would like to be part of this exciting city centre project then
please contact the Friends.
Throughout the year Friends of Brandon Hill have regular
volunteer days. The Friends help out with border planting,
bramble bashing, pond clearing and other activities to make
the Hill a better place. If you are interested in taking part on
these days or would like to organise a group to help on
Brandon Hill at times to suit yourself or your group please
contact the Friends or speak to Darren the park keeper.

Panto fund can support local projects
The Hotwells Panto Committee is looking for bids
from individuals/groups in the Hotwells & Clifton-
wood areas for community projects.
HCCA has already received £1180 towards running costs
and a further £2000 is available for other projects.
Grants were made out of last year’s Panto funds to: HCCA
for running costs, Trinity Daycare, Puppet Place, money to
provide local noticeboards and the cost of a special Newslet-
ter.
If you are interested, please send details of your project to

has brought so many peo-
ple both on stage and in

the years. Look out for it
when you visit after the
Museum opens in July.
Gromit Gardeners gather
We are still awaiting confirmation that the open
space, on the corner of Cumberland Place and
Granby Hill, has been formerly acquired by the City
from the bankrupt Edward Ware Homes.
Neighbours have got together to produce a sketch plan
showing some alterations and improvements we would like
to see. HCCA noticeboards should be showing this soon. It
includes the part which the Council have temporarily fenced
off, for safety reasons. We are arranging a meeting with
Parks Department to discuss improvements and future man-
agement, including community involvement. We want to
leave the Granby Hill end as a wildflower space. It is acciden-
tally rich in wildflowers. So do look for flowers there
through the summer.
