Somerset.

We enjoyed a few days in Somerset. Based at Travelodge Ilminster. We took a look at the remains of Chard Canal. The museum was closed for the winter period. We went onto Taunton and Bridgewater at Maunsel. Some good walks around here. The centre of the universe and the planets laid out on one walk. The children have Mister Men book figures to discover. We purchased some gifts from Perrys Cider and viewed the museum. The local village, Dowlish Wake, is one not to be missed.
We toured Bath and its Golden Stone buildings. The bridges and Dundas aquaduct  were worth a visit and the remains of the Somerset coal canal. Onward to Bradford on Avon, Then Rowde Devizes and Caen Hill Lock Flight.

 We went into Devon to Lyme Regis, Axemouth and Seaton. Before heading up the Fosse Way towards home.
