I think this page should be moved, as the river, although it flows for a while through the ceremonial county of Somerset and forms its border for longer, does not flow through the present administrative Somerset at all, which could lead to a certain amount of confusion. River Avon (Bristol) is a possible alternative, though as a Bristolian I may be biased in that respect. See Talk:River Avon.
- I have now moved this page from River Avon, Somerset to River Avon, Bristol. This name incorporates the most familiar name of the river (River Avon) and a reference to its alternative name, the Bristol Avon. It should not be taken to mean that the river is wholly or even mostly in Bristol.
- The mouth of the river is in the county of Bristol, so it makes sense naming it thus --Steinsky 13:16, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)
