The Bristol General Steam Navigation Company provided shipping services between Bristol and ports in southern Ireland, principally Cork from 1821 to 1980.〔Chilcott's descriptive history of Bristol. John Chilcott. 1849〕 There were also services to other destinations including ports in southern England, south Wales and France. ==History==
The company was founded in 1821 as the War Office Steam Packet Company. In 1827 it became the General Steam Packet Company, in 1834 the Bristol Steam Packet Company and in 1835 the Bristol General Steam Navigation Company. In 1877 it changed to the Bristol Steam Navigation Company which continued until 1980. Originally offering passenger and freight services between Bristol and a range of ports in Southern England, Wales〔Post Office Directory of Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire and the City of Bristol. 1863〕 and Ireland, passenger services were terminated in 1914 because of competition from the Great Western Railway at Fishguard.
