SITE CONTEXT

CUMBERLAND BASIN

5 4 WOODL AND

Cumberland Basin is situated to the West of the city centre. It lies between the city centre and the Avon gorge, becoming a meeting point for both natural and urban environments. The River Avon has a huge tidal range of up to 15m, meaning at low tide mudflats are exposed. 4 Cumberland Basin sits at the edge of the Floating Harbour, which is non-tidal.
