About Clifton Observatory

Welcome to Clifton Observatory, an unforgettable historic venue with stunning views overlooking Clifton Suspension Bridge and the Avon Gorge. For many decades, Clifton Observatory has been an iconic piece of English Heritage and an important Bristol landmark with occupation of the site dating back to 800 BC when it was home to a Celtic tribe.

Originally built in 1766 as a windmill, the building was converted into an observatory by William West in 1829. Since then, Clifton Observatory has undergone many transformations and additions. Now this grade II* listed building is a gorgeous wedding and events venue with two bars, a Rooftop Terrace, and remarkable tourist attractions.

Celebrate in the William West room, a gorgeous and unique blank canvas for your dream vision, or the Rooftop Terrace, a stunning open-air space with spectacular views. For a truly unique and memorable experience we invite your guests to explore the attractions.
