About

Knowle Park sits in the south of Bristol within the BS4 postal area, largely a residential quarter centred on Wells Road. Housing is a mix of Victorian terraces and mid-20th-century semi-detached homes, with short commercial stretches of shops, cafes and a few pubs along the main road. The area is served by regular buses to the city centre and Bristol Temple Meads, and local streets feed into a network of walking and cycling routes used for daily trips and school runs. It falls inside the city council’s Knowle ward and shares civic services with neighbouring neighbourhoods.

The neighbourhood has a small public green known locally as Knowle Park, with a children’s play area and a marked football pitch used by community teams at weekends. A community centre nearby hosts clubs, meetings and occasional pop-up markets, while a primary school on a side street provides most local families with education close to home. Short terraces with original bay windows and low front gardens give many streets a consistent streetscape, and narrow service lanes and allotments remain part of the local pattern of land use.
