Yate, Market town in South Gloucestershire, England.

Yate extends across a suburban area northeast of Bristol, featuring residential neighborhoods, commercial districts, and green spaces within South Gloucestershire.

The settlement dates back to 770 AD, receiving its first mention in historical records as a gateway into forest areas according to Old English etymology.

St Mary's Church stands as the central religious building of Yate, with its Norman architecture modified through the centuries and restored in 1970.

The town maintains a railway station on the Bristol to Birmingham line, connecting residents to major cities while offering local bus services throughout the area.

During World War II, the local railway yard transformed into a Sea Transport Stores Depot, supporting United States Army operations in the region.
