Hartcliffe is the name of both a council ward and a district of the city of Bristol in the United Kingdom which lies within that ward. The ward contains the areas of Hartcliffe and Headley Park, as well as small portions of Withywood and Bishopsworth
Hartcliffe
Hartcliffe is a district of Bristol, England. It is a council estate on the southern edges of the city next to Withywood, on the northern slopes of Dundry Hill. Construction started in 1952 after the compulsory purchase of a number of pre-existing farms. A small shopping area was built (Symes Avenue), and the first church (St Andrew) opened in 1956.
Imperial Tobacco once had offices and a factory in Hartcliffe. These are now empty, and the subject of redevelopment opportunities, indicating Hartcliffe's regeneration.
Hartcliffe and Withywood Community Partnership (HWCP) was formed by local residents in 1998 to help support the regeneration and renewal of the area.
Schools within Hartcliffe include Teyfant Community School, Fair Furlong Primary School, Hareclive Primary School and Hartcliffe Engineering Community College.

Symes Avenue is the District Shopping Centre serving the outer estates of Hartcliffe and Withywood with a total population of around 20,000 people. The estates, built in the 1950s and 1960s, have long been identified as suffering a multitude of different problems which characterise a socially excluded community.[citation needed] Hartcliffe is a key example of the lack of investment suffered by South Bristol in general, certainly when compared to the much more affluent North.[citation needed]
On 12 November 2007 a Morrisons supermarket opened after a massive redevelopment of the area. The redevelopment also includes a new library. The redevelopment should also be included alongside the "Junction" development on the old Will's site; many well known retailers are now operating on this site, providing many jobs and opportunities for the Hartcliffe area.
Headley Park
Headley Park is a suburb of Bristol. The original estate was built between 1934 and 1938.[2] It is located in South Bristol between Bedminster Down, Bishopsworth, Knowle West and Hartcliffe, and is a largely residential area.
The area is served by one public house, The Maytree which is located on St Peters Rise.
Bishopsworth and Withywood
The areas of Bishopsworth and Withywood lie partly in the Hartcliffe ward, but are mostly in the Bishopsworth ward.
