Description

This photograph shows a number of Bristol's landmarks including the Colston Hall and the tower of St Michael's Church. When this image was taken the University of Bristol's physics building was not yet completed but the outline of two cranes which can be seen on the top of the hill indicates that construction had begun.

PC41451 shows an almost identical view but the photograph was taken after the University of Bristol's physics building was completed.
