The remains of a medieval mansion attached to a house in a modern housing estate,
a rare Edward VIII pillar box, a public clock with two minute-hands, metal-edged
pavements, the oldest war memorial in the country, a library with a glass floor
covering Roman mosaics, a station with a ghost train, a 'castle' built with bricks of
brass-smelting slag, Brunel's lesser-known bridge, a signal box bought for 25, a jet
fighter suspended from the ceiling in a storage warehouse, a ladies public toilet with
a blue plaque honouring the former attendant...

Far from the crowds and the usual clich s, Bristol has plenty of undiscovered hidden
treasures for people who know how to wander off the beaten track.
This is an indispensable guide for those who want to really get to know Bristol and
especially for those who think they know it already.
