Caledonia Place is a Grade II* listed residential street in Clifton, Bristol. At the northern end is The Mall, one of Clifton’s thriving commercial thoroughfares, and to the southern end, the Avon Gorge and Clifton Suspension Bridge.
Numbers 32 to 44 were built in 1788 to the design of Bath architect and surveyor, John Eveleigh.[1] The central and end houses are pedimented and broken forward with the variation giving the terrace a palatial appearance. 43 and 44 were converted into one in 1922 to form a bank.
Numbers 1 to 31 are an extension of the eighteenth century development and are differentiated by fine cast-iron Grecian balconies. They were built to a single design by T. Foster and W. Okley and were completed by 1843. Lord Macaulay lived at number 16 in 1852.[2]
In February 2015 residents complaining about the introduction of a Residents Parking Zone by George Ferguson and Bristol City Council complained about the attachment of signs to the railings outside listed buildings.[3]
