Dowry Square is a square and green space in the Hotwells area of Bristol, England. It was laid out in 1727 by George Tully and building continued until 1750. The houses are three-storeyed with attics, simply detailed and with channelled pilasters to the party walls. In 1799 Dr Thomas Beddoes opened

a laboratory in Dowry Square as the Pneumatic Institution where he worked with Sir Humphry Davy.
