	Bristol (UK) - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Bristol (UK)
		During the Middle Ages, Bristol became an important commercial centre; it was recognized as a staple town in 1353, and it enjoyed a considerable trade in wool, leather, wine, and salt.
		Bristol had trading links with France, Holland, Portugal, and Spain, and was the second most-important city in England between the 15th and 18th centuries.
		Bristol's status as a port declined in the 19th century, as it was unable to berth the increasingly large vessels.

	Bristol - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Bristol (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Bristol was first settled in 1727 and incorporated as a city in 1911.
		It was a hotbed of Tory activity during the Revolution; the name Tory's Den was given to a cave on Chippens Hill.
		Miss Hawkins was the youngest of the two daughters of a Bristol merchant, of course, he must be called; but, as the whole of the profits of his mercantile life appeared so very moderate, it was not unfair to guess the dignity of his line of trade had been very moderate also.

	Bristol Freighter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bristol Freighter (Bristol Type 170) was a twin engined cargo aircraft built by Bristol designed to carry motor cars as well as their owners.
		A keen and impatient traveller himself, Powel realised that by adapting the design of the Bristol Bombay bomber, he could fly passengers with their cars from Britain to continental Europe.
		The cockpit sits atop large clam shell doors at the nose, making the unpressurised fuselage somewhat breezy; one kiwi pilot claimed his charge was "30 thousand rivets flying in close formation".

	sleeve valve engine, 4 valve vs. 2valve, dohc, rotary valve development
		The British Air Ministry contracted for research on the single sleeve valve by Ricardo Engineering and Bristol Aero-Egines in the 1920's; the most attractive feature at the time seemd to be the possibility it offered of working at higher compression ratios and thus giving more power and economy.
		Some postwar production aircraft which used Bristol sleeve-valve engines were the Bristol 170 Freighter, the Handley-Page Hermes, the Blackburn Beverley, and the Nord Noratlas.
		I think there were a few limited-production cars (Bristol and others) up to about 1950 which used the single sleeve valve.

	Filton Airfield Enthusiasts Website - Bristol Freighter
		You could easily argue that the Bristol 170 Wayfarer and Freighter series, with 214 aircraft built, was Bristol's most successful civilian programme, though it has to be said a lot of the sales were to Air Forces.
		Unfortunately the Bristol Aero Collection hasn't felt able to get involved while its own future is being sorted out.
		As one gets imperceptibly older one wonders if people today appreciate the place the Bristol Freighter had in the consciousness of the travelling public in the 1950s and 60s, with the car ferry services across the Channel to France and Belgium.
