Location

Located on East Street, Factory No.1 lies at the gateway to Bedminster, minutes from North Street and in the heart of city life. In recent years the area has created a name for itself as a hub for creativity and artists and the area has a distinctive bohemian character. The Upfest Gallery on North Street is Bristol’s longest running urban art gallery and most years it hosts UPFEST, Europe’s largest street art festival. There is no shortage of places to eat, shop and hang out in Bedminster: a short walk away is North Street with its collection of independent shops and eateries.

East Street itself offers an assortment of shops perfect for all your grocery needs. Just across the road is the summer hotspot Victoria Park, whilst Bedminster Station is a short walk away, where funding is in place to reopen a direct line to Portishead.

From cigarettes to city living, Factory No.1 is a beacon of Bristol’s industrial past. Its rich history makes for a compelling and interesting place to live. Located on the site of what was once a medieval hospital and then a tannery, the building is better known for being the first factory of tobacco importers and manufacturers, W.D & H.O Wills. The brothers moved their business from its premises in Redcliff Street to its first factory in Consort House (Factory No. 1) in 1886, celebrating the move with a high tea in the Cigar Room for all 900 employees. Famously both non-smokers, William Day Wills and Henry Overton Wills II were pioneers of the cigarette card used in packaging and were the first UK company to mass-produce cigarettes.

Their successful business launched many popular cigarette brands including Woodbine and Capstan. Towards the end of the 19th century and in response to challenges from the American Tobacco Company, W.D & H.O Wills joined forces with 12 other family-run tobacco manufacturers including John Player & Sons and Lambert & Butler. The Imperial Tobacco Company (Great Britain and Ireland) Limited was formed in 1901 (although the companies continued to trade under their own names) and Regent House became the company headquarters. Tobacco continued to be manufactured at Factory No.1 until the 1970s.
