New high quality, sustainable homes and green spaces in Bedminster

Our Proposals at a glance

National property business Godwin Developments, working with Bristol-based Ferrer Projects, is preparing proposals for the regeneration of a disused industrial unit on Hope Road. The development will transform the vacant building into much-needed 88 new homes for the people of Bedminster and the wider city.

Our Aspirations

Transform and visually improve a derelict site

Deliver much-needed, quality homes for Bedminster and wider Bristol

Create a sustainable building which minimises impact on the environment

Boost biodiversity and green amenity spaces

Promote sustainable travel through the provision of cycle storage

Boost the local economy through jobs and additional trade for local businesses

About The Site

The site, subject to these proposals, is located near the A38 West Street in Bedminster. It contains a 2-storey warehouse that has been derelict for several years and therefore represents a perfect opportunity for redevelopment into a residential block.

It is surrounded by residential properties on Argus Road, Hope Road and Skypark Road, with a disused Selco store to the North East.

Benefitting from excellent public transport connections, the location is within walking distance of key bus routes and rail stations (Bedminster, Parson Street and Bristol Temple Meads) and in close proximity to shops and local amenities on East Street and West Street.

Godwin and Ferrer Projects proposals have been prepared to correspond with the surrounding residential uses while also maximising the number of homes that could be created to support the substantial need in Bristol while also repurposing a brownfield site.

Our consultation

We recently held a public consultation on this site dating from the 16th September to the 7th October 2024.

As part of the consultation, we hosted an in-person event at the Bedminster Methodist Church, British Road, Bedminster, Bristol, BS3 3BW on Wednesday 18th September, 3pm – 7pm , which introduced the team, shared our proposals, and allowed local people to provide feedback. The feedback received during the consultation will be reflected as much as possible in our proposals. A copy of the exhibition boards can be found here.

Whilst our formal public consultation period has passed, you are very welcome to contact us via the below methods.
