Source of steel bar in Bristol?

Hey guys, I've just unexpectedly had some workshop time come up, and it's caught me on the hop for the materials I need.
Anyone know where I can get some steel bar 24mm diameter? Longest length is 11cm so kinda hoping I may be able to get away with offcuts.
Also needs to be relatively decent stuff (not your average cheese!) as it's going towards making structural components. Any ideas?

You can try THESE guys.

They take cash on pick up to which helps.
Not sure on delivery time if its not in stock but I believe it's normally next day if it's in stock in another branch.

They don't appear to do 24mm but they do 25mm or 7/8.

I regularly use <http://www.averyknight.co.uk/>. They're 15 miles down the road in Bath but never disappoint.

Thanks guys, after phoning around Avery Knight seems to be the best bet (for short lengths at any rate). Spot on!
