Industrial archaeological sites in EnglandLocal nature reserves in AvonParks and open spaces in Bristol
Troopers Hill is a steep, southwest-facing hillside of pennant sandstone overlooking the River Avon in the St George district of Bristol, England. Managed by Bristol City Council and the volunteer Friends of Troopers Hill group, it was designated as a Local Nature Reserve (LNR) in 1995 and covers about 8.5 ha (21 acres). The reserve is noted for its industrial archaeology, including a Grade II-listed smelting chimney, and for heathland habitats that have developed on the acidic soils left by quarrying and mining. From 2007 to 2013, the site consistently received the Green Flag Award from Keep Britain Tidy.
