About The Watershed.

The Watershed on Canons Road is Bristol's most celebrated digital and creative media hub — a Grade II listed dockside warehouse on the Harbourside that houses a cinema, café-bar, arts programme, and co-working and studio workspace for Bristol's digital and creative community. The BS1 waterfront address and the civic profile of The Watershed make it one of Bristol's most desirable creative addresses — tenants benefit from the footfall, the cultural atmosphere, and the association with one of Bristol's most recognised civic institutions.

The Harbourside ferry stop is two minutes from the building — connecting to the city centre and Temple Meads by water. Bus routes 8/9/24/25 serve the Harbourside from the surrounding streets. Bristol Temple Meads is 15 minutes on foot across the city centre. The Harbourside waterfront promenade gives The Watershed an outdoor amenity that few city-centre offices can match.

Enquiries via Seek are forwarded directly to The Watershed workspace team — no broker, no placement fee.
