Coordinates: 51°28′23″N 2°30′22″W / 51.473°N 2.506°W / 51.473; -2.506 Soundwell is a suburb of Bristol, England in South Gloucestershire. It is situated between Kingswood and Staple Hill.
Located centrally in the parish is St. Stephen's Anglican Church and St. Stephen's CofE junior school with approximately 300 pupils. The original St. Stephen's infants school was closed and demolished several years ago to allow for expansion of Soundwell College. Soundwell College was a college of further education, now merged with the City of Bristol College, which maintains a centre in the locality.
Soundwell was the home of Soundwell F.C.. in the 1940s and 1950s. The current team, Soundwell Victoria, plays in the Bristol and District League. The team play home games at the Star Ground behind Kingswood Leisure Centre, formerly known as Soundwell Swimming Baths before it was developed. The Star Ground was named after the Pub next to the Leisure Centre, although the pub has since been renamed "The Turnpike".

In another place and time
A young man on a quest for knowledge
Traveled far a wide all across the land
But the road ahead was full of danger
He never dreamed of the risks he'd find
As he traveled this road of earth and sand
Now he fights on
Struggles to survive day by day
Eternal champion
To the gods of chaos doeth he pray
Warrior from a race of evil
Savior is what he wants to be
Wanderer he travels on forever
Tries to find that which he doeth seek
He gets so close but still too far
Always fall short of his goal
Determination drives him on and on
From a magic blade he gets his power
As it drink the souls of his enemies
Longs to return to a home that's so far gone
Always travelling
Hoping that one day he'll see his home
Self-banished emperor
For how much longer must he roam?
[repeat chorus]
He left his love behind
His cousin rules his land
As he faces death everywhere he turns
He tries to find the answers
That he has yet to find
The flame of conviction in his soul burns
