Hartcliffe

Built in the 1950s and 60s, Hartcliffe is one of Bristol’s most southerly areas, at the bottom of the Dundry Slopes. It’s well-known for its strong community spirit and resilience. At the heart of the area is Symes Avenue, with a parade of shops and a Morrison’s supermarket. Sign up to the Hartcliffe newsletter here.
