St Peter's Church, Bristol, Medieval church ruins in Castle Park, Bristol, England
The stone walls of St Peter's Church stand as remnants within Castle Park, featuring architectural elements from both 12th and 15th century construction periods.
The church foundation dates to 1106 when it was given to Tewkesbury Abbey, with the 12th-century city wall running beneath its western section.
The preserved ruins serve as a memorial to Bristol civilians who lost their lives during the World War II bombing raids of November 1940.
Bristol Archives maintains the parish records, including baptism, marriage, and burial registers, available for historical and genealogical research.
Archaeological excavations in 1975 revealed evidence suggesting this location might have been the site of Bristol's first religious structure.
