9m 57s
This was our first city road trip for Snow on the Road - 3 days in Bristol visiting its most interesting historical sites. What's so wonderful about Bristol is how its history is interwoven into the fabric of the city. World treasures like the SS Great Britain and Underfall Yard are visible all along the waterfront and thousands use the engineering marvel of the Clifton Suspension Bridge every day. We also got to explore some lesser visited sites: the mysterious Redcliffe caves and an evocative museum dedicated to mental health. In this episode, Dan gets to explore one of his favourite places in all the world - the SS Great Britain - including some areas that are normally off-limits.
