The beach of Kilve lies about halfway between Minehead and Bridgwater in the heart of the Quantocks. The shoreline is mostly rocky with plenty of rockpools to explore towards low tide. One of the best features of Kilve beach is the large grassy area behind the beach which is ideal for picnics.

IT stands as the only remaining memorial to a scheme that just a century ago would, it was claimed, turn the Quantock coast into the country’s oil capital with a production of five million gallons a year and bring unprecedented wealth to West Somerset. Today, visitors passing on their way to Kilve beach see only a brick box with a rusty chimney on its top. That’s if they notice it at all.

Look out for the incredible rock formations along the beach.

In the early 1900s, it was thought that the Kimmeridge shale at Kilve could be a commercial source of oil. It was explored, but never lucrative enough to really work. This old brick structure would have been used to prospect the site.

Kilve beach is made up of wave cut platforms of oil-bearing shale and lias which contains numerous fossils. If you take a walk on the exposed bedrock, you're very likely to see ammonites.
