A Bit About Patchway

History

Prior to the First World War, Patchway was a quaint area comprising farms, cottages, Victorian houses and a small settlement on Patchway Common. Significant development began in the 1930s with the construction of the Callicroft Estate. The area saw further expansion post-World War II, with council and private housing developments in the 1950s and the construction of the large chalet bungalow development of Stoke Lodge in the 1960s. Patchway became its own parish in 1953, transforming significantly over the years to provide the amenities now enjoyed by its residents​​​​.

Location and Travel

Conveniently located a stone’s throw from major transport links, including the M5 motorway and the Almondsbury Interchange, Patchway facilitates easy access to Bristol and the wider South West. The town benefits from Patchway railway station on the main South Wales-London line, though services are infrequent. Housing and commercial developments, such as the Patchway Estate and Aztec West Business Park, have contributed to the area’s growth, making it a key location for businesses and residents alike​​​​.

Local Amenities

Patchway boasts a variety of amenities, including the Norman Scott Park, offering leisure and sports facilities, and the Coniston Community Centre, which serves as a hub for community groups and leisure activities. The town has seen the addition of the new Charlton Hayes development, providing around 6000 new homes and further enhancing the community infrastructure. Local governance has evolved, with Patchway becoming a Town Council in 1998 and striving to continue progress for the benefit of all residents​​.
