Books about Kingsdown

Local resident Penny Mellor has written two books about Kingsdown:

“A Kingsdown Community” focusses on St James Place (now nos. 48-86 and 65-101 Kingsdown Parade - see the 1826 map for the location). You can get copies from Penny at 52 Kingsdown Parade, or from Bristol Architecture Centre (details can be found under the Links section of this site)

Penny’s other book is unfortunately out of print (though you can probably borrow one in the neighbourhood):

Hardback £20.00 RRP “Accompanies a prime-time six-part Channel 4 series, in the tradition of The 1940s House, in which a house is transformed to show how the way we live has changed over the last 200 years.”
