Frampton Cotterell history
Pre Anglo-Saxon history
Local historians tend to use field names and street names to work out the distant history of the village. It is believed from place names that there were two settlements in the area in Roman times.
Anglo-Saxon and Medieval history
The name Frampton means ‘the settlement (farmstead or village) on the Frome’ Frampton Cotterell was recorded as Frantone in the Domesday Book (1086) All the other local villages (Westerleigh, Stoke Gifford and Winterbourne) also have Old English names, suggesting they were either conquered or resettled between 577 and 1066. The name of a lane in the village, ‘Harris Barton’ also may be of pre-Norman origin.
Industrial era
During the 18th and 19th centuries, the hamlets of Brockridge, Adam’s Land and others joined together with Frampton Cotterell to form the modern village. The modern village has joined with Winterbourne, Watley’s End and Coalpit Heath.
20th and 21st centuries
In 1928 Beesmoor Road was constructed through farmland connecting Badminton Road, the main Yate – Bristol thoroughfare, with the Woodend area of Frampton Cotterell. Since then estates of closes, drives and cul-de-sacs have been built up in the green land between Park Lane and Woodend Road. The most dramatic changes have occurred in the south-east of the village at the boundary with Coalpit Heath.
