Review of the area

St George is a large and diverse neighbourhood of east Bristol, centred on an attractive park just off Church Road. The park has gentle slopes, wide tree-lined avenues and a lake that is usually dotted with several fishermen. It has a childrens play area and a large "wheel park" used by BMX and skateboarders. Like its neighbouring areas Kingswood, Whitehall, Redfield and Easton, the St George area grew up around a colliery. It expanded rapidly in Victorian times, with most of its housing built in typical 2 and 3 bedroom terraces. The mines were closed many decades ago. Lately it seems the area is in transition; once a solidly working-class community, its cheaper house prices have recently been drawing in aspirational buyers from other areas of the city. High street businesses have closed down and many former shops and amenities have been redeveloped into flats. St George has begun following a similar pattern to the Gloucester Road area: vacant premises have been taken up by cafes and delis, and the main road through the area is being converted into the citys latest Showcase Bus Route, with extensive re-paving and a 20mph zone aimed at revitalising the shopping area as well as improving public transport in and out of the community.
