Visit Bristol (Maritime Heritage) www.visitbristol.co.uk
In the 18th century, Bristol was the second largest port in the country. The history of Bristol as a port stretches back over many centuries, with Bristol being listed in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle of 1051 as a port trading with Ireland. Over the years, the course of two rivers were diverted and a Floating Harbour was constructed to meet the needs of the city's flourishing port.
