A view of the Avon Viaduct taken from the top of the Avon Aquaduct. The Avon Viaduct is at Linlithgow Bridge, Linlithgow, West Lothian Scotland.

The gorge area was inhabited at least as early as the Iron Age, probably by the Dobunni tribe. In Leigh Woods above Nightingale Valley, a steep dry valley beside the suspension bridge, is Stokeleigh Camp, one of three Iron Age hill forts in the area.[19] Stokeleigh was occupied from 3BCE to 1CE, and was also used in the Middle Ages.[19] The camp was protected on two sides by the cliff faces of the gorge and Nightingale Valley, and was also protected by earthworks, and is now a scheduled ancient monument.[20] A second hill fort was situated across Nightingale Valley, but has since been built on, and bridge road cuts through it. The third hill fort was situated on the opposite side of the gorge, in what is now observatory green. Archaeology, plus the configuration of the three forts, suggest they played a role in defending the gorge.[5] / Avon Gorge and Clifton Suspension Bridge, looking towards the city of Bristol. The people are looking out of the Giants Cave view point on the gorge face.During the Middle Ages and industrial revolution the area which now forms The Downs was used as common grazing land. It was mined for lead, calamine, iron and limestone, and became home to a windmill which produced snuff from the tobacco which had become one of the city’s principal imports.[21] In 1777 the windmill bunt out in a storm, and the building was converted into the observatory, which houses a camera obscura.[22] In the 18th and 19th centuries Bristol’s economy boomed and Clifton became a desirable place to live. Mansion houses were built over looking the gorge, but after grazing was stopped, trees grew and obscured the view from these mansions. In the Victorian era, with houses creeping further onto the Downs, an Act of Parliament was passed to protect them as a park for the people of Bristol. In 1754 a bridge to span the gorge was proposed, but it was nearly 80 years before work began on Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s Clifton Suspension Bridge, and a further 30 years before it was completed.23 Today the bridge is perhaps the best known landmark in Bristol.

The River Avon in the Woodford valley, near Salisbury, Wiltshire captured in the warm low light of an autumn day. The Avon river flows gently through the Woodford valley from Amesbury to the fine market town of Salisbury, Wiltshire. On its way it passes some of the most ancient historic sites in England. Just south of famous Stonehenge and to the west of Amesbury, the Avon passes the iron age hillfort of Vespasian’s Camp, which marks the northern end of the Woodford valley. From here the river passes near Ogbury Camp and then meanders its way to Old Sarum at the southern end of the valley before entering Salisbury and flowing on south to the Sea. This part of the Avon valley is an Environmentally Sensitive Area. Here farmers work to conserve the landscape, wildlife habitat and historic features. The Avon valley landscape has evolved from centuries of farming the river’s fertile flood plains. Traditionally, cattle and sheep have grazed much of the river valley and farmers in the valley are encouraged to restore arable land to grassland and maintain the high water levels which are important for the conservation of the area’s outstanding wildlife.
