TRANSPORT: CLIFTON ROCKS AND BRISTOL SUSPENSION BRIDGE TOUR

The Clifton Rocks Railway was a major engineering achievement in the 1890s and operated for 40 years, transporting people from Hotwells Road to Clifton in passenger cars running in a tunnel in the Avon gorge on steeply inclined tracks.

The tour will be an extended tour down in to the tunnels. The railway encompasses such a huge amount of Bristol’s and general engineering history. This tour is not one to be missed!

The Clifton Suspension Bridge is World famous and one of the essential things to see in the West Country. The bridge is a beautiful piece of engineering lovingly maintained by the Trustees and in better condition now than it was when built!

Following the tour, we will be meeting in the Avon Gorge hotel for drinks with a chance to get to chat to other local Young Members.

Please note that this event is now Fully Booked.
