Who
knew
that
I
could
exist
for
several
decades
and
not
know
of
this
hidden
gem
within
Bristol!
One
literally
enters
the
building
via
a
door
that
looks
just
like
any
other
door
-
and
could
be
easily
missed
if
not
for
signage.
This
place
boasts
of
being
one
of
the
oldest
interior
rooms
to
exist
in
Bristol,
and
with
the
many
portraits
hung
upon
its
walls,
glaring
down
at
you
in
various
stages
of
melancholy,
it's
not
hard
to
believe.
Yet,
the
staff
are
extremely
accommodating,
in
their
willingness
to
put
up
with
our
tour
group's
shenanigans
of
costume
play
(to
confirm,
these
were
provided
outfits,
not
illegal
museum
raids).
While
I
was
greatly
impressed
by
the
amount
of
bonnets
to
try
out,
what
left
the
greatest
mark
in
my
mind
was
the
miniscule
courtyard
to
the
rear
of
the
building.
It
was
like
a
lost
fragment
of
a
previous
time.
A
fraction
of
heritage
whose
charm
is
added
to
by
the
fact
it
is
so
hidden
and
therefore
not
swarming
with
visitors.
It
is
also
free
-
regardless
of
history,
this
fact
tempted
me
to
visit
here
in
the
first
place.
Completely
worth
it.
