Somerset's 50 mile Trail
See Long Description for text
My little book is written as though I'm actually taking you with me along the 50 mile Parrett Trail. However, it is not intended as a guide book, although there are details of the route on geological maps plus, grid references of towns and villages visited en route. Hopefully my jottings will encourage you to pick out the parts you'd most like to see, or even better to walk the whole 50 miles. There are pubs and cafes in most villages to help you plan your days. Maybe you could read the book as a story, or it could be a book to take with you, enabling you to read it before walking each section, giving you an an idea of what you'll discover each day. Whichever you do, hopefully all will be of interest and provide you with a flavour of this part of Somerset.
I'm not a geologist by training but have spent many years walking the Parrett Trail, some as a guide, when I developed an interest in the geology , flora and fauna and the history of the area. My aim with my notes is to entice you to look at the countryside in a new way, to look further than just the views, pasturelands and buildings to see land formations and how they affect the way we live.
Another of my hopes is that you'll feel inspired to explore more of Somerset, the land of the Sumorsaete - the Summer Settlers. The county I live in and love. There's so much to discover!
