About Clifton Observatory
First constructed in 1766 on the site of a Celtic Iron Age fort, Clifton Observatory was originally a windmill. In 1828, artist William West transformed the building into an Observatory, installing many telescopes and other astronomical equipment, including an incredible 5 ft Camera Obscura which still operates today, offering unique views of Avon Gorge and Clifton Suspension Bridge. Clifton Observatory also offers the only access to the legendary Giant's Cave, a 200 ft passageway through the rocks to a viewing platform set in the steep cliff-face of Avon Gorge. Today, Clifton Observatory is a popular tourist destination with unique attractions and a cafe. Clifton Observatory can also be hired for private events. The William West room - which boasts a stage, bar, and a comprehensive AV system - along with the Rooftop Terrace with its stunning views of Clifton Suspension Bridge, are both available for exclusive hire. Clifton Observatory is the perfect venue for your dream event, from summer parties to weddings.
