About

Lawrence Hill ward lies in east Bristol, bounded by the River Avon and the main railway line. The area contains a mix of residential streets, industrial estates, and several major traffic routes. Its landscape is notably flat, shaped by its position on the river's floodplain.

The area is home to the City of Bristol College's Ashley Down Centre and the large Barton Hill Settlement community hub. Temple Meads railway station sits just outside its western boundary. A distinctive local landmark is the former Church of St Luke, now a climbing centre, with its prominent spire visible across the area. The Bristol to Bath Railway Path runs along its southern edge.
