No place sums up the Bristol attitude of artistic creation and rebellion as Stokes Croft and Montpelier. With its world-renowned street art, thriving local scene and diverse cultural history, Stokes Croft has for decades been resisting the inevitable creep of corporate interests, but more importantly offers up an alternative. Colin’s photographs take you under the skin of the people, cultures, and place in this unique area of the city, where lives intersect and a new world is being created every day.

What can I say, an excellent book that captures the spirit of Montpelier and Stokes Croft (I grew up in Montpelier as a young kid). I think Moody’s photos coupled with his fascinating subjects – people and location – means that this book will appeal to non-Bristolians as well. The only downside is that it is too short! I also love the binding and overall design and construction of the book.
I highly recommend Moody’s other book The Great British High Street – Gloucester Road.
