Brentry is a suburb of north Bristol, England, between Henbury and Southmead which is spread along the southern edge of the Avonmouth-London railway line. The area is bounded by Filton Aerodrome to the north and Filton Golf Course to the east. Brentry has a mix of high-quality private housing and good former council housing. Brentry lies at the junction of two roads. The east-west route (B4057) is now of only local importance, but in the 1930s it carried A38 traffic by-passing Bristol.

  • Brentry is a suburb of north Bristol, England, between Henbury and Southmead which is spread along the southern edge of the Avonmouth-London railway line. The area is bounded by Filton Aerodrome to the north and Filton Golf Course to the east. Brentry has a mix of high-quality private housing and good former council housing. Brentry lies at the junction of two roads. The east-west route (B4057) is now of only local importance, but in the 1930s it carried A38 traffic by-passing Bristol. The through route was cut by the runway for the giant Bristol Brabazon aircraft built in 1949. The north-south road, Passage Road, was a turnpike road from Bristol to South Wales via New Passage or the Old Passage at Aust Ferry. When the new Filton By-Pass (now part of the M5 motorway) was opened in 1962, the route became an arterial road linking the new road to the centre of Bristol. Pen Park Hole is a large cavern, to which access is strictly limited, near Brentry at the edge of Filton Golf Course.
