This stone circle was made within the last hundred years from ancient saddle stones and a large lump of granite found on Huntstile Farm. The good news is that it's officially sanctioned by the druids. It stands at the top of the hill above the organic farm with woodland to the north and great views in all other directions.

Huntstile Organic farm in Goathurst has a great little café as well as B&B, self catering, camping and glamping. The café is normally open 10:00 15:00 but is currently (July 2022) closed on Thurs and Fri. They also have pizza nights. Call 01278 662358 to check hours.

Bridgwater hasn't got its name for no reason. This thriving town has both the River Parrett and the Bridgwater & Taunton Canal winding through its heart. The canal is particularly lovely, with vibrant banks, old brick bridges and peaceful vistas. At only 14.5 miles (23.3 km) long, the canal links Bridgwater to Taunton and you can walk the entirety. This portion in Bridgwater makes for a lovely stroll and is part of the Samaritans Way South West footpath.

One of the many drains in the Somerset Levels, King's Sedgemoor Drain was originally built in the 18th century. The Levels are a major region of seasonal flooding and the channels were constructed to aid the draining of the area, protecting the low-lying villages and farmland. As you pass this drain at Parchey Bridge, it's easy to see the perfectly straight course of the river.
