One of Bristol’s most stunning heritage sites is set to reopen following a million-pound conservation project. Nestled within a tree-lined garden behind Victoria Street is the historic Temple Church, which will allow public access for the first time in more than three decades.
For the last two years the fragile site has been subjected to significant restoration work by English Heritage and to celebrate its completion, it will partake in the Bristol Light Festival with a dramatic art installation and the arrival of ‘Continuum’ set to light up the historic space from tomorrow (February 3) to February 12.
The ‘Continuum’ by artist llumaphonium is a fun, captivating installation that invites visitors to walk between 25 mirrored monoliths, exploring a maze of reflection and light. Daily entry to the reopening will be free and from April, visitors will be able to access the grounds during daylight hours.
