University of Bristol’s New Temple Quarter Campus Opening Minutes from Timber Yard
If you’re planning to live at Timber Yard in 2026, you couldn’t be in a better spot for student life in Bristol. The University of Bristol’s Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus is also set to open next year – just a short, ten-minute walk from Timber Yard.
The new campus will bring together world-class teaching, research, and collaboration spaces for the Business School and the Centre for Innovation and Entrepreneurship as well as the Schools of Computer Science; Electrical, Electronic and Mechanical Engineering; and Engineering Mathematics and Technology. As a Timber Yard resident, you’ll be right at the heart of this exciting new academic community.
A New Neighbourhood for Learning and Innovation on Your Doorstep
The new Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus is transforming the surrounding area into a vibrant hub of learning and innovation. Part of the ongoing Silverthorne Lane development, the TQEC Research Hub will host the Bristol Digital Futures Institute and MyWorld, two pioneering centres focused on the future of digital and creative technologies.
With the wider network of University spaces already active in this area – including the Bristol Dental School on Avon Street and the Barton Hill and Hartcliffe & Withywood Micro-campuses – Temple Quarter is fast becoming one of Bristol’s most exciting student destinations.
Connected, Sustainable and Built for the Future
The campus has been designed with connectivity and sustainability in mind. A new Eastern Entrance to Bristol Temple Meads and upgraded pedestrian and cycle links will make getting around easier than ever. You’ll be able to walk or cycle from Timber Yard to the new campus in minutes, or simply enjoy the regenerated canal-side setting right on your doorstep.
The Ideal Base for Bristol Students
Living at Timber Yard means you’ll be perfectly placed for lectures, study sessions, and socialising in the city’s newest academic quarter. With the University of Bristol’s Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus opening just down the road, you’ll be part of a connected, forward-thinking neighbourhood that’s reshaping the future of student life in Bristol.
