A poetry walk in the centre of Bristol led by the IsamBards, Pameli Benham, Dominic Fisher, Deborah Harvey and David C Johnson, who will share their original poems inspired by places and people on a poetic promenade from Queen Square to Millennium Square. We’ll start at the entrance to Queen Square near the top of King Street and Prince Street (by the Cow & Sow BS1 4JZ). On the walk we’ll encounter a Big Wheel and a Solar Tree, pirates hanging from gibbets, hotels for bees and beetles, Pero’s Bridge, Williams Tyndale and Penn, Robinson Crusoe and Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Thomas Chatterton and Cary Grant. The walk will take just over an hour, entirely on level ground.
IsamBards:
The IsamBards are four Bristol poets, Pameli Benham, Dominic Fisher, Deborah Harvey and David C Johnson. They write and share original poems inspired by people and places and unite the pleasures of walking and poetry. Their previous walks have included Brunel’s Bristol, the Centre, Clifton Suspension Bridge, Arnos Vale Cemetery, Poets’ Park and Bristol Botanic Garden, where they were socially distanced pop-up poets during Covid and lead popular poetry walks in normal times.
