The unhappy experience of the port of Bristol in establishing a new deep-water port raises wider issues concerning the geographical nature of the export-generating hinterland of exporting ports in advanced countries. A variety of considerations suggest that these will not be as geographically constrained as in the past, and from these a model of hinterland change is suggested from which, in turn, three testable hypotheses of changes to ports-hinterland relationships emerge. When tested against two official surveys of the regional-scale association between hinterlands and ports within Britain, support for all three is found, carrying the general conclusion that the geographical constraints upon export port hinterlands have weakened in the recent past. Some implications of this finding are suggested
