Counterslip Baptist Church

Counterslip Baptist Church is a Protestant church building in South Bristol located on Wells Road, featuring a main sanctuary and a separate community hall constructed in the mid-20th century. The buildings provide space for worship gatherings and community events throughout the week.

The congregation was established in 1804 by 49 members who first gathered in Tailor's Court before moving to a location near Bristol Bridge. After the original building was damaged during World War II, the community relocated to its current site on Wells Road.

The congregation gathers regularly for worship and community activities, creating spaces where people can deepen their spiritual connections through shared practices and mutual support. The church serves as a meeting place for those seeking fellowship and collective spiritual growth.

Sunday worship services are held in the morning and open to the public, with online streaming available for remote participation. Check with local sources or the church directly for specific service times and details about ongoing community programs.

The building survived World War II bombing that heavily damaged the original church structure, requiring the congregation to hold services in temporary venues during the reconstruction period. This resilience allowed the community to rebuild and establish its permanent home on Wells Road after the war.
