A further two attacks then saw the end of the bombardments which culminated in the Good Friday Raid of April the 11th 1941. In total, Bristol’s blitz saw 548 air raid alerts; 919 tonnes of high-explosive bombs and thousands-upon-thousands of incendiary bombs. 1,299 people died and 1,303 were seriously injured. Castle Park now stands as a physical reminder of Bristol’s endurance and resiliance. The raids destroyed a vast amount of the built environment in this area. The castle district, in particular, was one of the worst hit zones and has never fully recovered. 'Castle Park now stands as a physical reminder of Bristol’s endurance and resiliance.
