| dbo:abstract | Stokes Croft is a road in Bristol, England. It is part of the A38, a main road north of the city centre. Locals refer to the area around the road by the same name. The road became a centre of industry during the mid-19th century, including the Carriage Works.

Banksy's mural The Mild Mild West is on Stokes Croft. A protest was held in response to the opening of a Tesco Express on Cheltenham Road, which developed into a riot after opposition by the police. Later investigations suggested that frustration toward the new shop was entwined with other local tensions brought on by years of bad financial management by Bristol City Council. (en) Stokes Croft è un quartiere di Bristol (Regno Unito) situato a nord della città. Stokes Croft deve il suo nome al sindaco John Stoke che era il proprietario della zona nella seconda metà del XIV secolo. Nel XVIII secolo fu inaugurato lo Stokes Croft Theatre e la Dissenting Charity Almshouses and School e furono avviati molti esercizi commerciali. In seguito l'area si è sviluppata diventando un centro commerciale e culturale. Dal secondo dopoguerra Stokes Croft è nota per la vivacità della scena artistica e musicale. Musicisti come Massive Attack, Portishead, Tricky e Roni Size hanno iniziato la loro carriera nei numerosi locali. Il quartiere è famoso per le opere di Street Art e la presenza di numerosi writer, i quali hanno coperto le facciate degli edifici con murales molto grandi. Banksy, originario di Bristol, ha realizzato in questa zona i suoi primi dipinti tra cui il murale "Mild Mild West". Inoltre sono presenti numerosi laboratori di artisti e negozi di arte dove si possono comprare opere di esordienti. Street art, Hillgrove Street - geograph.org.uk - 1248176 Il quartiere è noto anche per le problematiche sociali e per un gran numero di edifici abbandonati che sono stati occupati da squatter. (it) |
