More about Whitehall Road Bristol
Whitehall, is a district on the edge of the inner
Bristol city, presumably taking it's name from the main
road, that runs through it Whitehall Road. This BS5
locality does not, however, appear on any road signs!
Local green space: Whitehall Playing Fields or Packer's
Ground as it was - took its name from the local
chocolate factory - Packers. Currently this company now
known as 'Famous Names' and has sadly, just announced
it's total closure. The playing field is to be fully
redeveloped for sports use for the local St George
School / Sports Academy. In part of the area, adjoining
Easton and Eastville, there are still many streets and
houses from the Victorian and Edwardian eras and in the
part, adjoining St George, Bristol is the Gordon Estate
with houses that were built in 1936. This area
originally comprised of market gardens and the new
Estate was built on the rhubarb patch and as a result,
rhubarb was quite commonplace in many gardens! Some
houses (Villas) overlook the ajoining St George Park and
these have small balconies.
Newer houses have since been built on the former Co-op
Bakery and Rose Green High School sites. There is a
plaque on the original school wall, which was
fortunately retained, giving some history, about John
Wesley having preached on this site.
The shoping rank either side of Embassy Road on the
Gordon Estate, once had a newsagents, a haberdashers, a
grocers, a bakery, a pet shop, a green grocers, a
chemist, a hairdressers, a butchers, a toy shop and
ironmongers. Unfortunately, many of the shops have been
converted back to houses, with only a newsagents,
hairdressers, reptile shop and sandwich shop remaining.
Local Churches: Crofts End Church, established in 1895
by George Brown, as a Christian work for miner's
children it became known as 'The Miner's Mission' or
Crofts End Mission. Still part of the local community
and very much a family church its current Pastor is
Andrew Yelland.
The Parish Church of St Ambrose has undergone some
change in latter years, with its vicarage being
demolished and replaced by a sheltered housing scheme
for older people. The church hall was refurbished as
part of this and is now The Beehive Centre with day-care
facilities. The Almshouses were retained and are still
in use.
Whitehall Chapel. The building has been retained and
restored, but no longer for church purposes. It is now
in use as offices.
The Westminster Garage and allotments on the opposite
side of Whitehall Road have also disappeared and instead
we see a small town housing development.
It is interesting, to note, that the 48th Bristol Scout
Group Headquarters adjacent to this development was
originally sited on the new housing site! When the
garage was originally redeveloped and enlarged, the
garage company paid for them to have a new building
built.
This replaced their 'tin hut' which had been rebuilt by
the boys and their parents, after its transportation
from Crofts End Mission, now Crofts End Church. They
were having a new church built and so their old building
moved on and had a new lease of life for many more
years! Some time later the St Leonard's Scout Group
merged with them and they then became the 32nd Bristol
(1st Whitehall) Group.
