On the Trail of Shaun the Sheep


Ever making the most of being home to Aardman Animations Bristol currently has a number of Shaun the Sheep trails to add fun n frivolity to the city scape and raise money for a good cause.


It also gets you to parts of Bristol you may not have visited before. The City is home to an array of amazing architecture. Some of its Regency stock could match Cheltenham and possibly Bath. This interspersed with many differing styles.













Our first trail ran through Clifton and spanned the famous suspension bridge. Close up this really is a marvel of modern engineering. Well worth popping into the Visitor Centre which explains the construction of the bridge and the amazing construction wokers who put it in place.

can you spot the climbers?

One Shaun can be found in the foyer of the Museum and Art Gallery. In the giant atrium, hung from the ceiling, is a model Bristol Boxkite:


but search as we may we couldn't find the one in Brandon Hill Park/ Cabot Tower - but it did provide a pleasant stroll:
