Frenchay was designated as a conservation area in 1975 in recognition of its unique architectural and historic character and appearance.
The village is situated between the B4058 road, which runs parallel to the M32 motorway, and the wooded River Frome valley.
Frenchay Park, an adjacent suburb, is situated within Bristol city limits.
Around November 2022, the village school moved site nearer to the now-closed hospital. The previous site was closed promptly.
