This is a view, looking almost due east, of the famous old 1889 cricket ground, which has been the home of Gloucestershire County Cricket Club up to the present day. Of the 26 acres bought on Ashley Down, 60% was retained for use as sports facilities and the rest was developed for housing, with several of the streets named after cricketing counties.

On two sides, the cricket ground is flanked by the New Orphan Houses, created by a Prussian non-conformist Missionary called George Muller (1805-1898) between 1847 and 1870. The orphans have long gone, but the original buildings remain as part of the City of Bristol College, Ashley Down Centre.

Despite the many changes in Bristol's cityscape since 1921, much of this scene remains recognisable to present-day observers.
