Garden
The gardens at College Fields take advantage of the fine views over the Bristol Channel to the Somerset coastline.

They are arranged in areas that are ideal for residents to be able to sit out and be aware that someone is always close at hand.

There is a patio area at the higher level with a low brick wall and a short ramp back into the building. There are benches in the area so others are able to join those in wheel chairs.
If it is sunny then residents are able to enjoy the sunshine or find a pleasant shady spot.

In 2007 a new area has been created in conjunction with ‘The Friends of College Fields’ and this area  and a decked lower level has been created under the trees on the lower level. Fully accessible by wheel chairs and with interesting shrubs the area has raised flower beds that some residents may find that they would like to tend.
