A brief stop at Blaise Hamlet in Bristol which is in the care of the National Trust

One of the nine cottages in the Hamlet.

The hamlet consists of nine cottages designed by John Nash in 1809 to accommodate Blaise Estate pensioners.

This monument incorporates a water pump.

A closer look at the inscription. On the left is the water pump handle.

This place is a real little treasure which you could easily miss as you drive past.

In the nearby Blaise castle museum is a model of the village.
