Absolutely fascinating. As a proud Bristolian, this has really opened my eyes to our wonderful city and county. Thank you for your brilliant work on this video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Feel free to subscribe
Been living in Bristol for nearly 15 years...love this place...its been tough but with some huge rewards
Hi.....planning to come for Jan intake....hope u living in BRISTOL...can u help me out to get rent flats and regarding to stay here
Its amazing to see how grand Bristol used to be, especially before the 1940s and 50s.
Bristol is my home and its my blood, its even my voice Ha Ha Ha...pure Bristolian and proud! 💯
Really impressive concept, research and committed care & creativity have gone into this historical treasure map of Bristol.
Fascinating to see it in its former spacious glory and how its structure changed to serve a population density that, like most cities, has changed with the challenges of time
This is a breathtaking piece of work, I have lived in Bristol all my life and have seen various photographs and paintings of old bristol, however, to see them come to life and know the context is just wonderful, thank you for your time doing this. I can also guess in an archive somewhere there is even more.
I may do a follow up - feel free to subscribe I have covered many other uK cities in this manner
Thank you for your beautiful work here.
Bristol is my city, and I am immensely proud of its people and its history.
Thank you for showing some of these attributes in this lovely video.
I shall be sharing it with friends and family.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gurt lush init.
Fascinating and well put together. Thank you!
As 50 year old Bristolian I was impressed by this. Shame a lot of brilliant True Bristol folk have been replaced by rich strangers from London. We are being milked for every penny. And soon I will have to pay to use the road to go to work. And sit for an hour to do 4 miles because the roads are being closed. I got 2 kids and a ton of tools I need to use a car. What a shame.🤔🤔
Bristol really has gone downhill, I was shocked at how many abandoned shops in the centre and homeless folk there were. Don't get me wrong it's still a nice city but is being ruined by the government, council and mayor.
@@GrazzaD the abandoned shops are to do with online shopping and it's happening across the world.
All cities including Bristol along with the residents must adapt, allow and accept change to naturally occur. Nothing stays the same.
@@levdup2330 I think you will find that rent and rates for pubs, shops and small business in most Towns and Cities have increased higher than inflation (unless you are a fake Charity shop) and Markets throughout the Country (the Heart) have been decimated again with ridiculous laws and high rents whilst the Supermarkets continue to expand. The corrupt Town Halls are a big part of the problem imo.
Fascinating , lve lived in Bristol all of my life , its great to see what parts of it users to look like 👍
Wonderful to watch. Thank you.
Oh wow this is awesome! Lived here in Bristol since I was 2, moved from Surrey, and all my children ever known. If you want some more "on the same spot" photos of some of those locations to blend in we could arrange that. Live not 20mins walk from Southmead hospital. Thankyou for making this!
Beautifully done, and quite hypnotic. As someone planning to visit Bristol soon who's a lifelong Anglophile, this is especially gratifying and enlightening. And I very much like the music as well. What a multitalented artist!
Cheers Jeff! I have many other films just like it from around the country feel free to have a look! James
@@JamesFoxTimeTravelArtist Why haven't I heard of this, before ?

Majestic and beautiful turned into a soulless dump.
Excellent. Thanks for making and posting this.
Outstanding work thanks for posting
As a Bristolian I can't wait to watch!
Very nicely done!
I love it, wish we had more green areas in Bristol and I can see we did have more of them in the past.
We have a lot of green areas in Bristol.
Absolutely brilliant-well done!!
Great animations and sound effects. Really brings together the visualisation of the times

Brilliant
LOVE
loved it. thank you
Brilliant. Really enjoyed this video
Brilliant stuff
Amazing!!!
Thankyou so much hard work. So interesting.
I saw many now famous rock bands at the Colston Hall for around £2, they now charge £150. I left Bristol 4 years ago having lived there all my life since I was born in Southmead in 1956. I watched it descend from a respectable proud city full of people who wanted to make it better, into something out of a dystopian sci fi horror movie.
Lived in Bristol for quite some time now, this was really interesting to watch and incredibly well put together. Thanks you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loads of work in that. Fantastic Thanks

Cheers Tony - feel free to Subscribe!
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing! :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
Much better in 1950 than it is today
It would be even better if can show the difference between the new track layout at Temple Meads station this summer.
amazing ty
Really good well done guys
Great work. One of the best city's in the world. Some crazy people and some extreme views, but for the most part it's very nice.
It’s rough af there. Many people off their heads. It makes Brighton look decent.
I live in Bristol now. I can't imagine how anyone would think that this is "one of the best cities in the world" (you probably haven't traveled much and therefore have low standards). Lots of wastelands with dirty graffiti, littered streets, an extremely uninteresting, boring center. Next year I will move to a nicer city
@@irvingwashington8638 Good that you're moving, please can you take your gentrification mindset with you as well, we don't want it
@@irvingwashington8638 lol. I'm guessing you haven't also. I'd have expected if you had you'd know that people see things very different and that this is ok. Or do we all have to agree with you?
I have lived in multiple countries and speak multiple languages. Bristol for me is one of the greatest cities in the world.
@@my-king VERY FEW Large Cities in the world, , are free of negatives. How else would a maker of Videos promote a city--ANY CITY, but high-light a mix of positives and comparative mistakes?? Only fools would expect otherwise.. I have lived in Bristol for nearly 70 years, seen Very good, and some bad, but on balance, it's a very pleasant place to live.
Really cool video
St Mary Redcliffe, one of the biggest churches in Britain that isn't a cathedral is not shown. That is the main A38 road to Somerset, Devon and Cornwall. Looks like another church tower in the video.
Great job! We live in the centre so it’s really interesting to watch
Thanks! You might be interested in my other Bristol films! czcams.com/video/PhuxgGR8NqA/video.html
I enjoyed the map part at the end
Never knew that Templemeads station had lost a fair chunk of the clocktower.
Lost in the blitz.
@@stevehallam0850 Cheers.
Wow it legit looks better back then
Gurt Mint too
wow
A city once run by elders past down from middle ages been run into gridlock and all our once beautiful old buildings replaced with 20 year lifespan carbuncles
Gurt mint
Beautiful city ❤️
I reallty like yes is good
Colston hall has been renamed and is now known as the bristol beacon.
Always be the Colston Hall to me
@@johnstreet8240 Good for you
I much preferred the centre when it was grass, I remember when the changed it gor the concrete and fountains 😕
This is really awesome it's just a shame there were not more up to date photos of certain things like Southmead Hospital and the Colston Hall as they're completely different now than the most recent photo used.
Born and bred Bristolian from 1974 to present day. Love this short video and love Bristol as well. :)
Where is BRI hospital including the old hospital and suspension bridge?
I live in Bristol
do Exeter please :)
Enjoy czcams.com/video/2jIX78xKu9g/video.html
any thoughts on short hair cats? or in u boats?
How nicer it was when less populated, tho I've heard that it was very rough and hard times to live in, still is, still has lots of good points, hope it doesn't get anymore populated
Yes and the same for most Towns and Cities throughout the UK that these vids show, since the late 90's with massive increases of immigration it has decimated a clearly over populated Country combined with the manipulated census stats..
Illustrates how much the council has managed to fuf it up over the years.
I’m quite sad to see Colston statue missing, whilst I do totally understand the feelings of those who pulled it down, I feel there should have been a better way. Perhaps a notice describing an accurate history of the man and maybe a statue alongside of someone important in the struggle for Black rights. To be fair I don’t know if the protesters had previously tried to get something done and failed or perhaps they thought that nobody would listen or care. All politics aside, it’s a part of Bristol history for better or worse. I grew up near Bristol and lived there for some years, including living in St Pauls district for a couple of years,
There was NO EXCUSE, what-so-ever, for that gross act of stupidity and shere VANDALISM. All those who stood by, and did nothing--ESPECIALLY the POLICE, should have paid a price for their, compicity in this CRIME.
@@MrDaiseymay 100% agree
Gurt Lush
Up The Gas!
Yeahhhh College Green in the 1830s somehow looks like an even better place to smoke weed, mind
Beats neighbouring Bath which requires a second mortgage and has no character. But a silly presentation, no mention of prehensile St Pauls and Easton.
Because they are shit areas.
@@yesthen2704 Easton and St Paul's have been shitholes for 40 years.
Miss you Mr Colston
Visited 18 months ago for dinner, it was a Friday evening,big mistake.I have never before seen so many foul mouthed drunken young women,the city centre was teeming with them.Not the city I grew up in.
I grew up in Bristol from 1981-2018, just don't relate to it anymore its changed so much in the last 15+ years and not for the best. Moved 5 years ago and not really been back. It was great in the 1980's, 1990's and first half of the 2000's but just seems full of Londoners and been too gentrified.
