Brandon Hill (Cabot Tower)

Brandon Hill, the park around Cabot Tower just off Park Street, is Bristol's longest-standing outdoor gay cruising spot, noted across cruising directories for evening and after-dark meets near the tower and the wooded slopes. It is a public city-centre park used by families and walkers by day, so discretion is expected. Same-sex activity is legal in the UK and Bristol is a welcoming city, but public sexual activity remains an offence - keep encounters private and be aware of your surroundings, especially after dark.
