This consultation has now concluded. Information about the project is still available to read below, and results will be published in due course.
Aerial map of Temple Gate
The Temple Gate area covered by this framework is made up of two specific sites close to the station.
The first is Bristol and Exeter Yard, adjacent to the station to the right, in between the main station approach and Cattle Market Road. The second area is across the Temple Gate Highway from the station - on the eastern end of the Redcliffe neighbourhood enclosed by Redcliffe Mead Lane and Somerset Street. The River Avon New Cut runs along its southern edge.
Temple Gate history
The Temple Gate area was first developed following the creation of the River Avon New Cut between 1804 and 1809. During the 19th Century terraced housing and industrial warehouses were built in the area. Bristol & Exeter Yard, including Bristol & Exeter House (Grade II* listed) was constructed in 1852. The current station approach ramp and Bristol Temple Meads Station (Grade I listed) were added in the 1870s. These historic buildings contribute to the area’s character providing opportunities to enhance the setting of the area and celebrate its heritage.

Temple Gate today
The area covered by the framework, across from the station, includes a large building along Temple Gate which includes a pub, restaurant, retail spaces, a hotel and a multi-storey car park. The site includes land on the site of the former Robins and Day car dealership and Victoria House, which are currently subject to development proposals from a private developer. There are residential properties and car parking immediately outside the framework area - the impact of development on these properties will be considered as any plans come forward.
Bristol and Exeter Yard, between Station Approach and Cattle Market Road, is used for railway servicing, as well as access to a number of small independent businesses situated in the arches under Station Approach. Bristol and Exeter House and Temple Studios (alongside Cattle Market Road) offer office space and units for a number of businesses. This framework suggests no change to Temple Studios, the business uses under Station Approach, or Bristol and Exeter House. An additional area of land is currently undeveloped.
