About this Event

Clifton is known for its beauty — but behind its elegant streets are stories rarely told.

Join this guided walk exploring the hidden history of women who lived, studied, wrote and protested in Clifton. Expect surprising, powerful stories — from early women students and suffragists to writers and one unforgettable moment at the Clifton Suspension Bridge.

A relaxed, storytelling-led walk for curious locals — not a history lecture. Ideal if you enjoy exploring the city and meeting like-minded people along the way.

📅 Sunday 15 February at 10:30
📍 Start: Birdcage Walk, Clifton
⏱️ 1.5–2 hours
💸 Pay as you feel (suggested £10–£15)

We’ll finish at the White Lion pub terrace, overlooking the Avon Gorge and the Clifton Suspension Bridge, with time to stay for a drink and conversation if people wish.
