Easton in Gordano

Easton in Gordano (/ɡɔːrˈdeɪnoʊ/) is a village in Somerset, England, about 4+1⁄2 miles (7 km) northwest of Bristol city centre.

Most facilities are in the nearby larger village of Pill, or the town of Portishead which lies some 3 miles (5 km) to the west.

After the Second World War a large housing development grew up in the Lodway area, northwest of Pill village.

The parish council's role also includes initiating projects for the maintenance and repair of parish facilities, such as the village hall or community centre, playing fields and playgrounds, as well as consulting with the district council on the maintenance, repair, and improvement of highways, drainage, footpaths, public transport, and street cleaning.

The parish falls within the unitary authority of North Somerset which was created in 1996, as established by the Local Government Act 1992.

[8] The parish is represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom as part of the North Somerset constituency.

It commands an extensive view over the Bristol Channel; South Wales and Royal Portbury Dock are also clearly visible.

St George's Flower Bank is a 1.48 hectares (3.7 acres) local nature reserve alongside a main road.

The Rudgleigh Inn is on the main A369 Portishead to Bristol Road, and the Kings Arms is in the village, on St. Georges Hill.

The local Clevedon Mercury and Portishead Times newspapers are delivered to residents free of charge, usually by Saturday morning.
