More about Lower Knowle

Bristol, England

Lower Knowle sits quietly in the shadow of Bristol but has more than enough to keep a Friday night busy. We've got markets popping up near the shops and community groups running workshops that make even the most cynical neighbour smile. The local park hosts summer concerts when the weather permits, while nearby venues fill with people looking for a pint or a chat. It is easy to find your evening without needing to check a dozen websites on a Sunday morning.
