It has a mixture of residential and industrial land. The 2014 population estimate of the population of Speedwell was 2,342.[1] The one School in the area is Bristol Brunel Academy, previously known as Speedwell Technology College and Speedwell Secondary School. It was Bristol's first specialist school - a technology college since 1997. In 2007 the Academy moved into all-new purpose built buildings and the old school buildings were demolished.[2] HistoryThe Speedwell area had many small coal mines in the 19th century.[3][4] In the 1970s some of these old workings had to be stabilised in the area of Speedwell secondary school. A goods only railway connected the collieries and the Peckett and Sons locomotive works (also known as the Atlas Locomotive Works) with the Midland railway at Kingswood junction.[5] In the early 1970s, shortly after Avon county council was formed, approximately half of Speedwell secondary school burnt down, the school was partly rebuilt. A number of 'temporary' prefab houses, built in the housing shortage after the World War II, existed in the west side of the suburb into the 21st century.[6] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Mid-2014 Population Estimates by Lower Layer Super Output Area|url=https://www.bristol.gov.uk/documents/20182/33904/Mid-2014+LSOA+population+estimates+by+broad+age+band/5e61c8be-abe8-4c57-a511-a3bcd30d5ecf|publisher=Bristol City Council|accessdate=12 December 2015}} {{Areas of Bristol}}{{Bristol-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |title=Bristol Brunel Academy |url=http://www.wilkinsoneyre.com/projects/bristol-brunel-academy |publisher=WilkinsonEyre |accessdate=19 August 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Speedwell Pit Coal Mine|url=http://www.aditnow.co.uk/Mines/Speedwell-Pit-Coal-Mine_11300/|publisher=Adit Now|accessdate=12 December 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web|last1=Penny|first1=John|title=Page 1 Regional Historian, Issue 7, Summer 2001 King Coal's Final Victim a reconstruction of the events surrounding the last fatal accident in a Bristol colliery – August 1932|url=http://www2.uwe.ac.uk/faculties/CAHE/Documents/Research/Regional-history/RH7Penny.pdf|publisher=University of the West of England|accessdate=12 December 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web|last1=Lee|first1=M.J.|title=Peckett & Sons ltd|url=http://www.irsociety.co.uk/Archives/53/Memoir.htm|publisher=Industrial Railway Record|accessdate=12 December 2015}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Milestone as tenants move into 100th Bristol prefab replacement|url=http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/Milestone-tenants-100th-Bristol-prefab-replacement/story-11279037-detail/story.html|accessdate=12 December 2015|work=Bristol Post|date=25 March 2010}} 1 : Areas of Bristol |
