A 15th-century barn that was once threatened with demolition has been restored to its former glory after an award-winning refurbishment.
Tithe Barn, in Shirehampton, opened its doors to the public at the weekend following a long campaign of fundraising to save the historic building.
The medieval barn was earmarked for closure and the site faced redevelopment in the 1990s.
But a determined community campaign saved the Grade II*-listed medieval building and a mixture of private and public investment funded the £1.2million refurbishment.
Project fundraiser from St Mary's Church, James Harris, said: "We have been working on this project for over four years now so it's fantastic to be able to open the doors to the community and let everyone see what has been achieved."
