Frome Vale is an electoral ward in Bristol, England, lying northeast of the city centre. It is represented by two members on Bristol City Council, which as of 2024[update] are Louis Martin and Yassin Al Maghrabi of the Labour Party.
Area profile
Frome Vale includes the suburbs of Broomhill[3] and Fishponds, and also the Glenside campus of the University of the West of England.[4] The ward is named after the River Frome, which runs through the area in a wooded valley through the parks of Oldbury Court and Snuff Mills.[5]
Frome Vale is a very mixed area, with a split of housing types, sizes and tenures that is roughly representative of the wider city. The ward generally sits mid-table in rankings of measures of deprivation, except for the Gill Avenue housing estate, which ranks in the top 3% most deprived areas in England, and Blackberry Hill, which ranks in the top quartile.[6]
