The plot is in Bromley Heath, a residential area in North Bristol popular with young families and retired people. There is both an infant school and a primary school within walking distance of the site. Also within walking distance are GP practices, dentists, a Co-op supermarket and a Sainsbury’s Local in the nearby centre of Downend.
The site is very well situated for public transport and is on major bus routes to central Bristol, Bath, Emersons Green and Parkway Station. The site is also very close to the Bristol ring road, with connections to the M4 and M5 motorways.
