I've lived here since last year and something that still puzzles me is where are the boundaries of Southville? The Coronation Road bit is quite easy but where are the boundaries to the east (Bedminster) and to the west (Ashton)? Is North Street the border to the south?
Can anyone shed any light?

No doubt at the risk of offending some, I'd go for Coronation Road, Dean Lane, North Street, Raleigh Road, although its a bit woolly around the east side as you need to include Southville Road, Alpha Road, Lucky Lane etc.
ReplyDeleteOut of interest here's the Southville political ward map, which doesn't match what most people (including the Victorian housing developers) have/had in mind when they use the term 'Southville':
