'''Purdown''' (sometimes spelt '''Pur Down''') is a hill in the north east of [Bristol](/source/Bristol), England. The suburb of [Lockleaze](/source/Lockleaze) lies on its western flanks, while its south-eastern slopes reach into [Eastville](/source/Eastville%2C_Bristol) and include a [Priory Group](/source/Priory_Group) hospital, Fairfield High School, allotment gardens and a recreation area. Much of the ridgetop and eastern flank of the hill is public open space, part of the [Stoke Park estate](/source/Stoke_Park%2C_Bristol).

Muller Road crosses the southern end of the hill, while the [M32 motorway](/source/M32_motorway) runs along the lower slopes to the east.

The [Purdown BT Tower](/source/Purdown_BT_Tower) is constructed near the highest point of the hill.
