Saki Arima

**Saki Arima** jest matką Kousei'a Arimy. Była znaną w całym kraju pianistką, która uczyła syna gry i która miała wpływ na jego przyszłe życie oraz załamanie nerwowe.

## Wygląd

Saki Arima pokazana jest zwykle jako chora, siedząca na wózku kobieta. was usually depicted sitting in a wheelchair. Ma krótkie, sięgające do ramion brązowe włosy i granatowe oczy. W niektórych odcinkach możemy zobaczyć ją z rurką z tlenem.

## Osobowość

Mimo, że była bardzo surowa i bezlitosna względem Kousei'a, to zmarła myśląc o tym, jak ukochany syn sobie bez niej poradzi. We wspomnieniach Hiroko mamy okazję zauważyć, że tak naprawdę bardzo się o niego troszczyła i chciała, żeby jako pianista mógł na siebie zarobić.

## Historia

Saki była zarówno matką, jak i nauczycielką Kousei'a, która biła go nawet za najmniejszy błąd chcąc, żeby chłopiec grał idealnie. Na początku nie chciała robić z chłopca pianisty, jednak kiedy Hiroko zauważyła jego talent, a stan Saki zaczął się pogarszać, postanowiła nauczyć go wszystkiego i stworzyć z niego wspaniałego pianistę, by ten mógł w przyszłości utrzymać się z gry. Zmarła na krótko przed kwalifikacjami Kousei'a do jego pierwszego europejskiego konkursu. Często nawiedzała Arimę podczas gry na fortepianie, choć w końcu przyznał on sam przed sobą, że była ona dla niego tylko wymówką.

## Cytaty

* **(Do Kousei'a)** *"To nie ma znaczenia, jeśli nie będziesz pierwszy."*
* **(Do Kousei'a)** *"Fortepian to ty. Jeśli będziesz dotykał go z czułością, uśmiechnie się. Jeśli naciśniesz z siłą, rozwścieczysz go."*

## Ciekawostki

* Początkowo nie mieliśmy okazji zobaczyć oczu Saki - było to podkreślenie jej osobowości jako głównej antagonistki serii. Zmienia się to dopiero w odcinku 12, gdy Kousei uświadamia sobie, że chory obraz jego matki to coś, co sam sobie wykreował w głowie.

Concorde

. For an
all-too-brief period from 1976 until 2003, if you were rich enough, it was
possible to fly at twice the speed of sound in a scheduled airline service
aboard the Concorde - the most advanced passenger aircraft of its generation,
much of which was developed in Bristol.

The idea of
supersonic airline travel dates back to the 1950s, when aircraft companies in
several countries investigated the possibilities. The tremendous costs led to
the British and French governments agreeing to develop an aircraft jointly, and
different aspects were parcelled out across both countries’ industries. Filton
concentrated on the engines (based on the successful Bristol Siddeley Olympus
design) and the cockpit, and carried out the final assembly. The first
prototype flew at Toulouse in 1967 and the aircraft entered scheduled service
in 1976.

Initially it
was believed that over 130 Concordes would be produced but a combination of
rising fuel costs, changing patterns of travel, opposition from the United
States (albeit eventually overcome) meant that only 20 aircraft (including
prototypes) were built.

As well as
its remarkable speed, Concorde led the way in a number of other developments:
it was the first civil aircraft with now-universal ‘fly by wire’, where the
pilot’s actions at the conventional controls are transmitted electronically to
the flying surface operating units. All of the systems were duplicated in case
of power failure – again, now commonplace but then rare.  The aircraft also had to withstand incredibly
high temperatures, for which aluminium alloys had to be developed specially.
Interestingly, although the Mach counter is a digital display, the cockpit of
Concorde contains a vast array of analogue dials and instruments – it was truly
a pre-digital design.

To many
Concorde was the most beautiful aircraft to have flown so far. To others, it
was a tremendous waste of public money, never recouped to even a small degree
in service, for a limited number of technological advances.

Matthew barge

video File:Placeholder
The concrete barge alongside the Matthew was built as one of two barges for a crane that built the gas dock at Avonmouth, later used for storing grain. Purchased by Bristol Sea Scouts in 1952. They built their hut on it, made out of what was formerly a local fire station, near Cumberland Basin. The barge was renamed by them as the Training Ship Matthew.
It was moored near Castle Park. In 2005 the hut was sold for scrap. The other barge of the pair is still moored by Castle Park, and is being used as a floating garden.
This story was told to me by an ex Bristol Sea Scout.

Jetty Bracket

This info is on display in the Features section of Places Gallery

Wooden brackets like this were used to support overhanging upper storeys or 'jetties' of timber-framed houses. Many were decoratively carved with scrolls, animals and figures. This is one example of several brackets in the museum collection that date to the 1600s-1800s many of which were salvaged form old demolished houses and other buildings in the city.
Bianca Mandujano

Age
 Weight

Bianca Mandujano didn’t exactly start out to be a smuggler. Sometimes you just fall for the wrong guy who’s prosletizing about helping people in need-a real sob story. Before you know it, you find yourself in way over your head and knowing more about the criminal underground than anyone should. And your sweet, oh-so sincere friend? He’s just another thug your mother warned you about.

But hey, it’s not all bad. The money’s certainly not. And sometimes you do get to help out some poor sods.

Just as long as they’ve paid for the privilege.

Bianca was indirectly involved int he murder of ATF Agent Janice Tanner by Chief Gonzales.
The Thekla

The Thekla is a cargo ship moored in the Mud Dock area of Bristol's Floating Harbour. German-built in 1959, she spent her working life transporting timber around the ports of the Baltic Sea. After twenty years of service, she ran aground at Gravesend, Kent, and was left to rust at Sunderland Docks, where she was purchased by the novelist, playwright and theatrical producer Ki (real name Pamela) Longfellow-Stanshaw, wife of the late Vivian Stanshaw, former frontman of the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band.

Longfellow-Stanshaw brought the boat to Bristol as 'The Old Profanity Showboat' in 1982, it's the idea to run a theatre and restaurant on board. Longfellow hoped that the boat would provide refuge for fear Valium-addicted husband. The restaurant failed, but the boat functioned successfully as a theatre, arts space and live music venue , while also serving as the Longfellow's /Stanshaw's living space. A few key personnel also lived there.

In 1985 the Stanshaw's staged *Stinkfoot*, a comic opera they had written and produced, on board, where it received excellent reviews.

Since the 1990s she has been ran, under new management, as a nightclub and live music venue under her original working name 'Thekla'.

Anecdote

'Ki' Longfellow wrote her first two novels as Pamela Longfellow. Stinkfoot was about 3 hours long, inventive for the times and a bit surreal; It featured a giant singing prawn a bit like in Alice-I-W's lobster quadrille. At the end Viv Stanshall came out and took a bow.

The Bonzo Lounge in Keynsham (the latest in the lounge chain) is named after Stanshaw's band as they had an album called Keynsham, having liked staying there while on tour.
Charles Hill & Son Shipbuilders

*Builders plate from the Bristol Queen, 1946, built by Charles Hill & Son and used by Campbell's between 1946 - 1979, given to Charles Hill by Captain G. S. Gunn, 1979, is on display in tHe 'Mastering the Tides' case in the Places Gallery.*

*Commemorative silver salver, 1935 - memento from the launch of the John King tugboat at Charles Hill's yard. On display in the 'Mastering the Tides' case in the Places Gallery.*

*Model of the John King, built by Charles Hill & Sons, 1935 - on display in the 'Mastering the Tides' case in the Places Gallery.*

 Charles Hill & Sons was a major shipbuilding company based in Bristol during the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries.

The company was originally established as Hilhouse in 1772 by James Hilhouse. Charles Hill, a shipwright, joined the company in 1824. Hill acquired the company and In 1845 it was successively reestablished as Charles Hill & Sons.  "Hill's" built mainly merchant and commercial ships (but also warships and governmental vessels during both world wars).

In 1879 they established the Bristol City Line a transatlantic steamship service between Bristol and New York, which ran until 1974.

MV Rozi, a tugboat built by Charles Hill & Sons in 1958, is now a tourist attraction as a dive site off the coast of Malta, since after being decommissioned she was used as an artificial reef.

'Hill's' used the Albion Dockyard, which was on a site acquired by the original company in 1820, opposite the Hotwell Dock on the north side of the river, which they used first. The Albion Yard consisted of two wet docks, a large dry dock and building berths. It's construction led to the closure of the Hotwells and Wapping Yards within four years.

William Patterson shipbuilders were based in the adjacent Great Western Yard, and after they launched the Great Western and Great Britain in the 1830s and 1840s, designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Hilhouse /Hills lost out on many orders.

'Hill's went out business in out of business in 1977.

The two firms built over 560 ships in their combined 200 years of existence.

Hotwells

*Samuel Loxton's 1914 illustration of Jone's Buildings, a court off of Hotwells Road, is shown in the 'Our House' display in the Life Gallery, along with the story of Frank, who lived in Hotwells in the 1900s with 9 siblings.*

*Williams & Anderson Wood Carvers were based in Hotwells, and a selection of their tools and products is on display in the People Gallery.*

Hotwells is a neighbourhood in Central Bristol. It is situated between Clifton and the Floating Harbour. It was named for the geo thermic wells that rise in the area. These wells provided the water for the Hotwells Spa which was popular in the 18th century.

"The return of the ss Great Britain from the Falklands in 1970 wasn't just a catalyst for the regeneration of the Floating Harbour but of a whole area that had become very run-down. The 1950s and 60s proved a period of feverish 'Do It Yourself' activity as people bought big Georgian houses here for ridiculous prices and did them up.

"Fit people still use the historic Zig-Zag path down the side of the gorge to Hotwells, but it was once possible to travel down on the Clifton Rocks Railway, a funicular railway within a tunnel. "Supported by the Avon Gorge hotel, this fascinating, but hidden away place, is slowly being rediscovered and opened up to the public on special occasions.

"The spectacular gorge has changed a lot since socialites and the sick visited the Hotwell Spa in the 18th century to take the waters. Did those visitors, I wonder, realise that many of the boats which passed by the attractive riverside location were involved in the slave trade?

"By the turn of the century the spa had had its day, with the wealthy visitors leaving behind many consumptive people (those with TB) seeking help from a new breed of scientists attracted to the Hotwell.

"But people like Humphry Davy – although celebrating the discovery of laughing gas (nitrous oxide) with their poet friends – couldn't help them much.

"Unfortunately, the beautiful, wooded gorge became scarred by quarrying, and then more rock faces were blasted away to widen the river for bigger ships.

"The harbour was radically changed between 1804 and 1809 when William Jessop had the vision to re-route the river Avon via a 'New Cut' through Bedminster.

"Lock-gates were installed on the old river course to ensure that the level of water remained constant.

"Now, in this new 'Float', boats were no longer left stranded on the mud and rocks at low tide.

"The Underfall Yard, with its unique Victorian maritime workshops, remains relatively unchanged, and the pleasure steamer Balmoral serves as a reminder of the Campbell's White Funnel Fleet which once used the harbour as its base.

"Although the area has architectural riches galore, it's important for us to remember that while some people lived in style in grand houses, others survived in abject poverty in sickening hovels off the Hotwell Road.

"The two biggest changes to happen to Hotwells were firstly, when the shipping moved down river to Avonmouth, and secondly, when a large area of housing was demolished for the creation of the Cumberland Basin flyover in the early 1960s"

Len Corbett

Leonard
James Corbett (b. 1897) attended Fairfield School before joining Fry’s, working
his way up to be a General Manager.

Len
was an occasional cricket player for Gloucestershire but rugby was his real
talent.  He played for the Fry’s first
fifteen before going on to play more than 200 times for Bristol and winning 16
caps with the England Rugby team, which he captained in 1927.

He was forced to miss the
British Isles Rugby Union Team Tour of South Africa in 1924, when Fry’s could
not spare him from his day job.
S.S. Great Britain

The S S Great Britain, designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, was launched in Bristol on 19 July 1843. Built to serve the growing
transatlantic passenger trade between England and the United States, she was
the first propeller driven, ocean going, iron wrought ship in the world and was
unique at the time in terms of construction and size. She was salvaged and
returned from the Falkland Islands to Bristol in 1970, where she has been
restored to her former glory and is moored in the Great Western Dry Dock, where
she was built.
Bruce Cole

Bruce Cole, a young sugar salesman, bought
H.J. Packer & Co for £950 in 1886. Cole worked hard to build up his
company, initially undertaking much of the physical work himself. Under his
leadership the company grew and prospered, changing from a local business to a
major chocolate company.

He was
remembered as a kindly employer who arranged special outings for his staff,
even when the business was far from established.

In 1903 he
gave all staff a week’s holiday to celebrate Packer’s move to the new Greenbank
factory.
Delivery by Dray

It was a very a sad day for us - the end of years of tradition.  I think we had just six dray horses by then, and they were all retired together. The dray horses were popular in Bristol. They were a common sight in the city. Customers at the pubs where they made the deliveries were very fond of them and knew them by name.

Stuart Hadley, 2009.

Despite the introduction of cars and lorries, businesses of all sizes still used horses and carts to deliver goods locally in the early 1900s. Tramping through the heart of the city hauling up to five tons of cask and bottled beer, "Georges' Greys" were a regular feature in Bristol for more than 150 years. It was the job of these sturdy horses to pull dray carts piled with city-brewed ales to scores of pubs. But like so many other long held traditions the dray horses became a victim of progress and they delivered their final barrel of local beer in Bristol in 1962.
Elsie Griffin

This person is on display in the Contributing Wrap in the People Gallery

(1895-1989)

Elsie Griffin was a gifted singer from a humble
background. She attended St Michael on the Mount Primary School and became a soloist
at many concerts in Bristol, including a large, 500-voice, temperance choir at
the Colston Hall.

Elsie
started work as a chocolate-packer at the Fry's factory, where she became one
of ‘Fry’s Angels’, singing at morning prayer meetings.  After embarking upon a singing career, she was
involved in a lot of concert work and recording. In 1914, she won an award and
silver cup at the ‘Bristol Eisteddfod’, now known as, the ‘Bristol Festival of
Music Speech and Drama’. She popularised ‘Danny Boy’ and ‘Roses of Picardy’ when
singing to the British troops in France throughout World War I.

She
became principal soprano with the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company, performing and
recording Gilbert & Sullivan’s operas for many years.  In 1929, she won ‘Best British Gramophone
Solo’ for her recording of ‘Poor Wandering One’ from the opera ‘Pirates of
Penzance’.  She later joined the Carl
Rosa Opera Company as principal soprano until the outbreak of World War I Elsie
never forgot her time at Fry’s and visited the factory and staff, with other
members of D’Oyly Carte, when she returned to Bristol.  When Fry’s closed in 2011, Elsie’s life was
displayed in the exhibition. In 2012, Elsie’s cousin organised a Blue Plaque in
her honour, which was erected on the school she had attended as a child.
The Bristol Boxkite

The Bristol Biplane ( "Boxkite" is a nick-name ) was the first successful aircraft design manufactured in Bristol by the British and Colonial Aeroplane Company. This was established by Sir George White , then chairman of the Bristol Tramways and Carriage Company.

The French pilot Maurice Tetard took off from Durdam Downs for its maiden flight in November 1910. 76 Biplanes were made and repaired in a new factory at Filton between 1910 and 1914. 61 of these were the extended version and in fact the first British military aeroplanes.

This life-size model may be seen at Bristol City Museum, Queens Road. It was a replica built for the 1964 film "Those Magnificant Men in their Flying Machines "

In 1969 - that is only 59 years after the Bristol Boxkite first flight - it was possible to fly American astronauts to the Moon and safely return them and the famous words were spoken " a small step for a man but a big step for mankind ! "
Cabot Circus

Cabot Circus, Bristol's newest shopping and leisure facility, was named by public vote and opened in 2008.

Major city-centre roads were re-routed to accommodate five enormous areas, each designed by a different architect. These house more than a million square feet (92,900 square metres) of shops and facilities.

As part of the development, two medieval Dominican friary buildings and a 1700s Quakers Meeting House were restored. A huge glass-panelled roof that covers the Central Square was also built and is the first of its kind in the UK.

With its open, airy piazzas, the development has won national and international awards including those that recognise its excellence in retail property, parking facilities and its structural and environmental design.

Built to draw people back to shopping in the city centre, Cabot Circus has made Bristol a regional shopping destination once again.
John Ward Girdlestone

This person is on display in the Contributing Wrap in the People Gallery

(1840-1911)

John
Ward Girdlestone was born in Clifton 1840, and was Bristol's docks engineer
from 1882 to 1890.

Under
the management of Girdlestone, former buildings around the docks were replaced
with new offices, workshops and other types of new buildings. The largest of
these buildings was a corporation-owned granary which became a local landmark
until destroyed in the Blitz. The site is now occupied by M Shed (the museum of
Bristol people and landscape), and the adjoining L Shed (now used as the
museum’s stores). He also developed the Underfall Dockyard and installed
electricity around the docks, while maintaining existing dock equipment
developed by predecessors such as Isambard Kingdom Brunel.

Despite
Girdlestone’s notable work, he has been largely overlooked in the city’s history
books perhaps because he overspent his budget and was fired. Thankfully, because
of his tireless work and passion the buildings he created can be seen and
appreciated today.
Brandon Hill

Brandon Hill is a park in the Bristol Centre.

Brandon Hill is one of the city's,if not the country's, oldest public open spaces having been given to the Corporation in 1174. It was used for grazing animals, hay-making, hanging out washing and even
carpet beating. The hill was a key point in the defence of the city during the Civil War
and in the 18th
and 19th centuries hosted public meetings by reform groups
and trades unions. Cabot Tower was built in the park in 1898 and provides stunning panoramic views. Today it is a popular
picnic spot and part of the hill is set aside as a nature park.

The land was granted to the Corporation in 1174 by Robert, Earl of Gloucester and sublet to farmers for grazing until 1625 when it became a public open space used for 'unrestricted recreational pursuits' including hay-making and clothes drying.

Civic ownership of the land had been bought into some doubt by events that took place during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I when a small plot of land there was claimed on behalf of the Crown. It seems that Robert had actually also given a small plot of land on the hill to Tewkesbury Abbey in 1129 and the Corporation were forced to buy it for £30.

A commonly held belief is that it was Elizabeth who had given Brandon Hill to the city as a place to dry clothes but this is mistaken and is borne out by Corporation documents that existed before she was born.
T&GWU (Somerdale) Banner.

This object is displayed in the Protesting section of the People Gallery.

This Trade Union banner probably dates from the late 1920s or early 1930s, and belonged to the Transport & General Workers Union, Confectionary Workers Section. It was used by the workers at Fry's factory, Somerdale.

The side displayed shows scenes of sugar cane harvesting, chocolate manufacture, and cocoa pod picking. The image shows what the other side looks like. The spires of Bristol's skyline can be seen beneath the figures in the foreground. The block at the lower edge is an old repair and has not been altered by Bristol Museums, Galleries & Archives as it is part of the banners history.

George Tutill, the maker of the banner, set up shop in the late 1830s. He was based in Buckinghamshire and had a clear monopoly on banner production - probably about 80 per cent of the banners in the BMGA collection are made by Tutill.

The museum holds a collection of Trade Union banners and they aim to rotate these as part of gallery refreshment. All the banners are painted silk, making them incredibly fragile. No textiles should be displayed for long periods of time, but the weight of the paint on the silk makes these banners especially prone to splitting.

Images of the previous banner can be seen online, using the Museum's collections database. Search under 'banner' for all banners, or TA3666 to find the exact one that was on display.
The New Room

information on the New Room is on display in the 'Places of Worship' case in the Places Gallery.

John Wesley is depicted in the painting 'Some Who Have Made Bristol Famous' in People Gallery

 We took possession of a piece of ground, near St James's churchyard, in the Horse Fair, Bristol, where it was designed to build a room large enough to contain both the
Societies of Nicholas and Baldwin Street ... On Saturday, 12th, the first stone was laid, with the voice of praise and thanksgiving.

Journal of the Reverend John Wesley, May 1739

John Wesley opened the first-ever purpose built Methodist chapel in Bristol in 1739. The chapel was modest in size and built on land Wesley had purchased on the Horsefair. It became known as the New Room and was used by the congregation just three weeks after building had begun.

The New Rooms were enlarged in 1748 to accommodate up to 1,000 worshippers. This marked Methodism's official split from the Church of England, and its establishment as a religion in its own right.

The new building had a rectangular meeting room with an octagonal lantern window above it, small side windows and columns to support side galleries. The walls had a grey-white limewash and the woodwork was painted a stone colour.

The congregation sat on backless wooden seats to hear preachers deliver services from a two-tiered pulpit. Wesley and other preachers would stay in the upper rooms, which were joined to the galleries by stairs. The building was also used as a school, a library and a dispensary.
Peter St. hunting jug

This medieval green-glazed jug was discovered in 1975
during excavation of an area between the early line of the town defences and
Bristol Castle, and just to the north of the medieval church of St. Peter. This
type of pottery is generally known as Ham Green ware -  its name being taken from a kiln site
excavated in a field next to Ham Green Hospital in the 1950s. Cooking pots,
bowls, lamps and dripping trays were all made of this type of pottery
but,whatever their shape or size, all them were hand made and jugs were the
most commonly produced. They generally date to between the middle of the 12th
and the end of the 13th centuries.

Ham Green jugs are usually glazed and often decorated with
a variety of designs including both human and animal figures, as well as floral
designs over a grooved or hatched background. The figures on this pot represent
an archer with his bow ready to fire on a stag and doe. Although all these
figures are made of are applied strips of clay the potter has managed to convey
a real sense of fear in the eyes of the stag as it tries to escape its fate.

Significantly this type of pottery was very successfully
exported in large quantities  to both
South Wales and the east coast of Ireland. The sheer number of pieces found in
Ireland alone testify to the both importance and success of Bristol's trading
activities over 800 years ago. The jug is at the very start of the story of
trade and exchange, which has not only shaped the city but the rest of the
world.
Tune book for the Catholic mass, about 1370

These handwritten and illustrated pages come from a gradual, an abbreviated version of the mass that contained the tunes but not the prayers and ritual. It was probably used at St Augustine's Abbey in Bristol. It was made large enough for a group of singers to share one book. Symbols called "neumes" show the pitch and phrasing differently from modern music.
Bristol Savages

The Bristol Savages is a society of local artists. They have members who draw and paint, others who make music or
write poetry.

The
origin of the society was an informal group of artists who met regularly to
sketch in the mid-1890s. They formally became a club in 1904, calling
themselves The Bristol Savages. They say they "embody the savage spirit" from their headquarters in the ‘Wigwam’ in the
garden of the Red Lodge in Park Row.
William Masters Davies

William Masters Davies had his portrait painted to mark his 40th year of service with Wills. The painting is owned by Bristol Museum and was on public display at the M Shed as recently as 2021. William Davies worked at Wills's from 1869-1928, starting in the Invoice Office, became Head of the Department in 1888, and by 1900 was Head of the Stores. He lived in a 5 bedroomed Victorian house in Edgecumbe Road, Redland with his family. At first he was a tenant (the 1901 census shows him living there with his wife, two sons and a servant) but bought the house in 1921 for £1,200. On his death in 1928, the house passed to his wife Mary who continued to live there until her death in 1956.

City Charter of Edward III

A Charter granted to Bristol by King Edward III in 1347 gave the City the right to arrest people disturbing the peace at night and to punish bakers who broke the Assize of Bread, that is, who sold bread under an agreed weight.  The Assize was a way of controlling the price of bread, and avoiding public disorder when grain was scarce and expensive.  Amongst other punishments, the offending baker would be drawn through the streets on a sledge, and no doubt people would throw rotten vegetables and stale bread (or worse) at him.

The illustrated initial letter of the City Charter of Edward III shows a baker being punished for selling underweight bread.  The lightweight loaf is tied around his neck, and the scales used to defraud customers hung above him.

Isambard Kingdom Brunel

Brunel was born in
Portsmouth, 1806. His father, Marc Isambard Brunel, was a French engineer who
had made his name in France and New York before moving to England.

Growing up, Isambard
Kingdom Brunel was educated in both France and England learning information to enable
him to become a great engineer.

Brunel went on to work
for his father for five years, mostly as a residential engineer on the Thames
Tunnel. Work was suspended in 1828, when a flood destroyed much of the tunnel.
Brunel was badly injured during the flood and was sent to convalesce in Bristol
where he was encouraged to enter a competition to design a bridge to span the picturesque
Avon Gorge. Three years later, the judges declared him the winner, and Brunel
set to work on the bridge, Clifton Suspension Bridge, which is now a Grade I listed
structure that attracts visitors from all over the world.

The work for which
Brunel is probably best remembered is his construction of a network of tunnels,
bridges and viaducts for the Great Western Railway. In 1833, he was appointed
their chief engineer and work began on the line that linked London to Bristol.  Brunel pioneered new developments, for
instance he introduced the broad gauge in place of the standard gauge on this
line.

Brunel proposed to extend his transport network across the Atlantic, and so the Great Western Steamship Company was co-established for this purpose, by Brunel and Thomas Guppy, a marine engineer and businessman. A construction committee was formed of Brunel, Guppy, Captain Claxton RN who was Quay Warden of Bristol Docks, and William Patterson, a shipbuilder and Navel Architect Who's own company was responsible for building Brunel's designs. The Steamship Company became notable for the Great Western, the Great Britain, and the Great Eastern. All three were the biggest steam ships at the time they were built.

Avonmouth Docks

It has been like a sort of nightmare on the society of the city. Worse than politics, because more bitterly fought, more personally fought...[the dock struggle has been allowed] to break up old acquaintances, to chill conviviality, to make men look pale and spiteful at each other.

Bristol Times, 1864

In the 1860s, no one could agree about the port's future but in 1864 Parliament voted to allow two private companies to build new docks and railways at Avonmouth and Portishead. They opened over a decade later, Avonmouth in 1877 and Portishead in 1879. Fierce competition between the new docks and the city ensued, with all three suffering high losses in the process. Clearly this couldn't continue, and in 1884 the Lord Mayor, Charles Dodge Weston, brokered a deal whereby the city bought out the private companies and then ran all three docks.

Unfortunately the Docks Committee was dominated by individuals with considerable vested interests in the old city docks and consensus about the future could not be reached . Charles Wills, a clothing manufacturer was eager to expand Avonmouth Docks, but William Proctor Baker, who had invested in warehouses near the Floating Harbour was not. In 1899 after years of bitter infighting between the two factions, involving resignations and undignified public battles, both contenders left the scene.  The council then voted to build Royal Edward Dock at Avonmouth, which opened in 1908.
Shri Guru Nanak Prakash Singh Sabha Gurdwara

Sikh families living in Bristol came together in 1958 to pay the mortgage on a new temple at 8 St Mark's Road, Easton.

By the 1970s, a larger place of worship was needed, so properties at 71-77 Fishponds Road were acquired. These buildings, originally the offices of the Bristol Omnibus Company, were transformed into the Bristol Sikh Temple.

Also known as Shri Guru Nanak Prakash Singh Sabha Gurdwara, the temple has recently been refurbished inside and out. A large Diwan Hall, Langar Hall and Kitchen as well as dedicated classrooms and offices provide the Sikh community with a place to meet and worship.
Sherry in Bristol

12 Denmark Street (near the Hippodrome) has been associated with the sherry business since 1796. William Perry used the cellars to trade as a wine merchant. Cellar workers used to push large oak barrels along the underground tunnels from the boats arriving from Spain to the cellars of12 Denmark St.

The Harvey family joined the business in the early 1800's. John and Edward Harvey developed a new cream sherry, the infamous Harvey's Bristol Cream which became world renowned.

Today, the Harvey's Brand is owned by the American company, Beam Suntory which specialises in the importing, blending and exporting of fortified wine.

In 2012, number 12 Denmark St re-opened as a sherry, wine and cocktail lounge called Harvey Cellars and some sherry related memorabilia is on show.

The Douglas Motorcycle info

Visitor comments

My father had an old Douglas motorbike and at the start of WW1 he joined up. In those days if you had a hores or could ride a horse you went straight into the cavalry however if you had a motorbike you could be put anywhere. My father was put into the front as a despatch rider. The Army bought his bike off him then gave it him back to use. My dad loved his Douglas, but eventually wear and tear took its toll and the army provided him with another 'army issue' bike, he hated it and never saw his beloved Douglas again.

From a conversation with a visitor who then went on to own a couple of racing (TT?) Douglas bikes.

John Whitson

(1555–1629)

John Whitson was one of Bristol’s most successful
merchants in the 1600s. He liked to buy expensive clothes to show off his
wealth. Although some of his best clothes would have been London-made, he would
have acquired others locally. Bristol had a thriving clothing trade, regulated
by a guild system to ensure that craftspeople had reached a high standard
through long apprenticeship before they could set up in business on their own.
Super Nintendo

Electronic games became increasingly popular in the early 1990s. This model is a Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It dates from 1994 and belonged to Lisa who enjoyed playing games on an Amstrad system and watching football with her father. A contemporary games console, Sony's Playstation 3, is seen being played in the painting Gran Turismo
Fire Boat Pyronaut

Pyronaut was the third fire boat to work in Bristol's City Docks. She was built in 1934 at Charles Hill & Sons shipyard and designed to be able to pass under every bridge in the harbour without the need to open them. She could to work between Cumberland Basin and Hanham weir, the entire extent of the port estate in the city. Originally named Phoenix II, she was renamed in 1938, the new name being suggested by the teenage son of the Chair of the Watch Committee who was studying Greek at the time. It was hard for land-based engines to reach ships and buildings and so Pyronaut fought numerous peacetime fires before spending the early part of World War 2 in action almost every time that the Luftwaffe bombed the city. After the war, she reverted to peacetime duties, attending the major blazes at the Hippodrome, St Annes Board Mills, Colston Hall and Rowe Brothers lead works in the 1940s and 50s. She also deputised for the Avonmouth fire boat once a year when it went for maintenance, and spent several days there in 1951 when the largest peacetime fire to that date broke out in the oil tanks. At the end of the 1960s she was re-equipped with new engines and pumps, but the speedy decline of shipping in the City Docks and the greater ease with which land-based engines could get to fires meant that she was sold out of the fire service in 1973.
Floor Tile

This object is in the Places Gallery

Muslim leader, Saladin. It is believed to be one of a pair of tiles, which represent King Richard I (Lionheart) and Saladin.  Each tile showed a warrior on horseback facing the other and wielding a sword.  Richard attacks from the west and Saladin from the east.

Saladin was a great Muslim leader who amongst other things united and led the Muslim armies during the Crusades and recaptured Jerusalem. Medieval writers held him in great esteem as his behaviour, diplomatic skills and military prowess matched the highest standards of chivalry.

The tile was almost certainly produced locally in a Somerset kiln. Similar designs have been found in many medieval religious houses, most notably Glastonbury Abbey. It is likely the tile came from the Carmelite friary known to have existed on the site dating back to 1256.

 It is one of the earliest images relating to the Muslim world found in Bristol.
St. Mary Redcliffe

The parish church of St Mary Redcliffe is one of the most iconic places of worship in
Bristol. On a visit to Bristol in 1574 Queen Elizabeth I is reported to have described it as 'The fairest, goodliest and most famous parish church in England'.

It was built on the site of an earlier church sometime in the 1100s and became an important place of worship for sailors leaving and returning to the port. Much of the building that can be visited today was funded by wealthy merchants and built between 1292 and 1370, though the interior was not completed until the 1400s.

Disaster struck in 1446 when lightning destroyed the original spire of St Mary Redcliffe and much of the church's interior. The Reformation and Civil War also damaged the church's fine interior.

In 1848 a group called the Canynges Society formed to try to restore the church's former medieval splendour. The spire was restored in 1872 by architect George Godwin and based on information obtained from master mason John Norton, as recorded by William Worcester in 1448.

The Canynges Society re-formed in 1927 and is still active today raising money to support the upkeep of the church and its churchyard.
The Black Castle

The Black Castle in Brislington was built between 1745 - 1755. It was designed by William Halfpenny and James Bridges. It was built as a folly in the grounds of the Arnos Court Estate for William Reeve who was a local Quaker and businessman.

It was built from pre-cast black copper slag blocks from Reeve's own foundry at Crew's Hole, just a couple of miles away. This black copper slag was a waste product so it solved the problem of disposing of it. The 18th Century writer, Horace Walpole called it 'the Devils's Cathedral'.

Reeve went bankrupt in 1775 and his home and business was sold to a member of the Tonge family who were slave traders.

Today, the Black Castle is a Grade 1 listed building and is now a busy,family pub. It is no longer surrounded by trees and fields but now sits alongside car showrooms, Sainsbury's and a busy road.
Derek Sealy

This person is on display in the Contributing Wrap in the People Gallery

(1929 - )

Born in Barbados 1929, Derek came to Bristol in 1954
after his eldest brother had secured him a job with Bristol Pneumatic Tools in
Fishponds. Derek later became involved with the Barbados and Caribbean Friends
Association which led to him becoming a school Governor for 20 years at Brunel
College and Whitfield School.

*Derek worked tirelessly with schools and children to change attitudes. At*
that time, the exclusion rate of children from black and minority ethnic groups
was high. Many teachers had little knowledge and understanding of diverse
cultural backgrounds. He also encouraged children to achieve personal goals and
stay in school, rather than slip through the net.

“All the
youngsters have potential they just need help to nurture this.”

Derek also organised conferences for young people leaving
school who needed support to find work. He would bring together organisations
including BAE (aerospace industry), Bristol City Council and the Princes Trust.
He also campaigned for recruitment of more black and minority ethic candidates
into the police force.

Derek worked full-time while dedicating his free time to
these projects and received an award in 2013 for his contribution to
volunteering in the city.
Mark Adrian Williams

This person is on display in the Contributing Wrap in the People Gallery

(1965 - )

Mark
first started campaigning on behalf of rights for disabled people in the early
1980s, when he was asked to help set up what is now known as the West of
England Coalition of Disabled People (WECODP) with a friend. WECODP was set up
after “We realised that we were disabled by society’s barriers and that gave me
the passion to fight for Disabled people’s rights.”

In
1994, WECODP managed to get Avon Council to set up an independent living scheme
by offering support and guidance to disabled people about employing their own
personal assistants, making Bristol one of the first cities to do so. The
council also provided funds for the purchase of a property, the residential hostel of Courtland’s School in Knowle, which became a
Centre for Independent Living, later becoming the West of England Centre for
Independent Living (WECIL).

As a result of Mark and other disability rights activists’ efforts, the
disabled people’s movement in Bristol has always had a strong voice. However, Mark
continues to fight for disabled people’s rights, as many people believe that
the coalition-government’s austerity measures have made times tough for all. He
says, “there is still a lot of work to do.”

When not busy working as a co-chair of Bristol Disability Equality Forum or
helping to run WECIL, Mark is a governor at Broomhill Infants School. He is
also involved with the training of social work and medical students at Bristol
University.
