I always think of it as part of Bedminster as I used
to live over on St John's Lane side and we always
called it Bedminster. Police wise the beat is under
the same sergeant as Bedminster & Southville. It's in
the same extended school area as Bedminster and
Southville so it doesn't make sense to put it in with
Knowle.
