Tucked into a loop of the River Avon just east of the city centre, St Anne’s Park is defined by its steep topography and its proximity to the water. The area takes its name from a 15th-century chapel and a "holy well" that once stood near the river, long before the arrival of the Great Western Railway line which now cuts through the local landscape. Much of the housing here dates from the mid-20th century, arranged across hillsides that offer surprisingly wide views over the city towards the Lansdown slopes. It is a geographically self-contained spot, bordered by the river on one side and the greenery of Nightingale Valley on the other, where woodland paths follow a stream down to the old St Anne’s Board Mills site. While it feels somewhat removed from the urban rush, the feeder road provides a direct link into Temple Meads and the city centre, and the riverside path remains a popular, quiet route for those heading towards Beese’s riverside bar or Hanham on foot.
