On the night of Jan 4th 1941, 103 aircraft from Luftfloffe 1 & 2 raided Avonmouth a few miles to the North of Clevedon. 106.5 tonnes of H.E. bombs and 27,722 incendiary devices fell along the shores of the estuary.

In the war years, the @curzonclevedon was a popular spot for civilians and military personnel alike. At 21:38 on the 4th Jan 41, a bomb fell at the bottom of Old Church Road, opposite the cinema, killing an off duty soldier and wounding one other, plus two civilians. The casualty was a 22 year old Yorkshireman from Rotherham serving with the 4th Battalion, the East Yorkshire Regiment.

It later transpired that nine high explosive bombs and six hundred incendiary devices fell in Clevedon that night. Weston-Super-Mare to the South suffered to an even greater extent. Five high explosive bombs and three thousand incendiaries fell on the town, killing 34 people and injuring a further 85.

Between 1st Sept 1940 and 18th May 1943 the town suffered 16 raids - all 'overspill' from attacks on Bristol, Bath and Cardiff.

Today we remember.

The @clevedonpier will hold an annual Remembrance Day Service.
Free Entry between 10am and 11am

We are thrilled to be the centre page feature of the winter edition of this year's @northsomersetlife magazine! “Clevedon is the kind
of place where there really is something for everyone. Independent shopping from the seafront to the town centre has seen a flourish of new faces and bright business ideas over the past few years. “The Theatre Shop is another great example of a creative collective which adds to the cultural buzz. “.... Clevedon (is)
becoming a destination for
weekend day trips.
Unlike your usual seaside town,
Clevedon has something unique
and quite special to experience.” Listed are just a few of the fantastic independent retailers Clevedon have to offer, as well as a guide to the tranquil riverside walk along the newly opened Two Rivers Walk in Clevedon.
The walk comes courtesy of Land
Yeo Friends, a volunteer group which helps look after the Land Yeo River.
It is a 3.25-mile route from Kenn
Road bridge towards Clevedon
Pill, and onto Queens Square.

You can find guides to shopping, walks, where to eat and how you can spend your day in Clevedon on our website.

Take inspiration from @northsomersetlife and come join us!

As the nights draw in and evenings turn dark, Halloween has been a treat and fireworks have long since whizzed by (for the most part!), thoughts turn to the festive season, the green, red and white lights sparkling in the evening and carol singing through the streets.

Our latest blog has all the details you need for the Christmas Lights Switch On in Queens Square on 30th November.

Ooohhh.... Aaaahhh!

Fireworks night, also known as Guy Fawkes Night, historically began due to the events of 5 November 1605, when Guy Fawkes, a member of the Gunpowder Plot, was arrested while guarding explosives the plotters had placed beneath the House of Lords. Celebrating the fact that King James I had survived the attempt on his life, people lit bonfires around London; and months later, the government introduced an annual public day of thanksgiving, called the 5th November Act to commemorate the plot's failure.

These days, many celebrate the event with fireworks, family gatherings and good food. Clevedon is no exception! Saturday 2nd November 2019

Dial Hill Cricket Ground
Clevedon
BS21 7HW
Bonfire Starts 6pm

Fireworks Display 6.30pm

Gates open from 5pm for children’s rides, food stalls and bar.

Tickets now on sale in Tesco Clevedon, Triangle Post Office, Newsham Hanson Hill Road and Salthouse Pub.

Organised by Clevedon Round Table

SPLASH!

Clevedon is the first point of call for the @guardian for their swimmers guide to the UK coast and we can see why! "Rowan Clark, @_finsandgoggles_ an outdoor swimmer and swimming coach is often found on the side of Clevedon Marine Lake giving guidance to all ability levels. She is on the Board of Trustees for Marlens, the charity that looks after the Marine Lake and a member of the South West Seals winter swimmers. “Not renowned for its swimming, the Somerset coastline is characteristically brown and turgid. Clevedon has a historic bathing tradition – the famous Long Swim is now in its 91st year – while @clevedonlake has just marked its 90th birthday. Swimming from Clevedon beach feels like being part of the town’s fabric. You can only swim here around high tide but the joy of this small window is that all of Clevedon’s sea-swimming community comes together. Clevedon has one of the highest tidal ranges in the world, never letting the silty sea bed settle and this makes conditions variable. Depending on conditions and tide, you can swim under the pier’s legs or around its end. You will always come out smiling.” Refuel Survived the silty swim? Get the most epic bowl of porridge, a decent bacon sandwich or, of course, cake at Scarlett’s, just by the pier on Alexandra Road.“ The weather looks great today, fancy a trip to the coast and a dip in the sea? Why not check out our website before you join us.

This corner of the @curzonclevedon is one that whispers stories of the history of the building.

Opening in 1912 with fundraising efforts for those involved in the Titanic disaster that occurred just 5 days before opening, the @curzonclevedon are now fundraising again to repair serious damages to their roof. Without the repair work, the building would have to close.

The Curzon is open today between 10am and 2pm to welcome anyone who might like to donate £10 to their cause and dedicate one of the new replacement tiles to loved ones. Your sentiments will be placed into the heart of the building for (hopefully!) another 100 years!

Read more about their fundraising efforts from our blog in the bio.
