Know Your Greenbank

This layer maps the hidden past(s) of the Greenbank neighbourhood with the help of material gathered during the course of the local history initiative Know Your Greenbank. The project was a collaboration between Know Your Bristol and The Deep End, a heritage group of local residents who are currently restoring the chapel at the Greenbank Cemetery. Its aim has been to make visible the diverse and exciting history of the Greenbank neighbourhood that usually remains hidden to the view of those walking the streets of the area today. Over time, we hope that this layer will grow into a platform for locals to exchange stories about the past of their neighbourhood. We therefore strongly encourage anyone to contribute to this community history and add personal photos, texts, audio files or moving images to the layer.
