Welcome from the Friends of Eastwood Farm

Eastwood Farm Local Nature Reserve is a little known wildlife haven by the side of the River Avon in Brislington, Bristol.

Eastwood Farm is owned by Bristol City Council and managed by Bristol Parks, it was designated as a Local Nature Reserve in January 2008. Formerly farmland, part of the site was used for landfill in the 1970s but now it is a beautiful open space enjoyed by people and wildlife.

Take a walk along the watermeadows and you could see swans, kingfishers, coots, buzzards, squirrels, herons, mallards, moorhens, and many more. You may even see our ‘Parkie’ – Julian Thomas – who is a mine of information on the site and its wildlife.

The links below will tell you more about the site but it would be far better to pay us a visit!

Use the map to find us, click on the symbols for information and use the controls to move around; zoom in for a clearer view or zoom out to see where we are in Bristol - or in the world!.
