Where in Bristol is this place?

[@keithskuse4693]

It's in brislington bristol

[@shogun666able]

Used to be known as Bales scrap yard, which came about when Brislington Railway station was closed part of the Somerset and Dorset line. The old original railway station platform and ticket office remained for sometime, which would of course been a brilliant historic exhibition center. The original Robinsons Jam factory worked there for years until Tescos bought the land.
