My family owned latterly owned the house built in 1840 by the quarry operator John Couch. Does anyone know where John Couch's records mentioned in the web pages is archived? I would like to trace some aspects of the property.

You will need to contact local historian David Elliott who lives in Bitton. His family held the licence of the Bowl Bowl Inn for 58 years.

My relations lived in Riverside and worked in the quarry and on the barges, I wondered if you were able to view the records which David Elliot holds.
