Bristol riots
The Bristol riots refer to a number of significant riots in the city of Bristol in England.
==Bristol Bridge riot, 1793==
In 1794 the populace of Bristol were said to be "apt to collect in mobs on the slightest occasions; but have been seldom so spirited as in the late transactions on Bristol-bridge."〔The New History, Survey and Description of the City and Suburbs of Bristol, or Complete Guide. page 90. Printed, published, and sold by W. Matthews, no. 10 Broad-mead near Union-street, price three shillings. 1794.〕 The Bristol Bridge Riot of 30 September 1793 began as a protest at renewal of an act levying tolls on Bristol Bridge, which included the proposal to demolish several houses near the bridge in order to create a new access road, and controversy about the date for removal of gates.
11 people were killed and 45 injured, making it one of the worst massacres of the 18th century in England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Bristol Radical History Group )〕〔Michael Manson, Riot! The Bristol Bridge Massacre of 1793, Past & Present Press, 1998〕
