"Concorde Lodge is a prestigious development of 65 one and two-bedroom senior apartments, named after the magnificent aircraft which was built in the town.

Filton is situated on the northern outskirts of the city of Bristol and, as well as being at the centre of the aerospace industry, has a number of community and craft groups - many of which are for the over 60s - which add a wealth of art, skill and culture to the town.

The town boasts two main shopping areas; the Shield Centre and Abbey Wood Retail Park, both offering a good selection of shops and amenities which cater for your everyday needs. For a more unique shopping experience, The Mall at Cribbs Causeway combines over 130 stores with some great cafés and restaurants, making it an ideal venue for a day out." Show less
