Bristol's historic prosperity was built on the tobacco and slave trades. In the 18th century a slave, Pero, came to Bristol to serve the Pinney family. As part of the redevelopment of Bristol's docks, and the At-Bristol centre, this foot bridge was constructed in 1999. As part of the the British local, regional and national governments' commitment to token appologies for the things that they (or their predecessor institutions, or individuals residing in their area of jurisdiction) did two hundred years ago, the city council named the new bridge after him.
