Built in the 15th century on the site of an earlier church.

Donyatt Halt Records for Donyatt Halt state: "This halt, opened on May 5th, 1928, has a single platform edged with wooden sleepers, and a small wooden shelter. A pathway leads up from the platform to the road, which crosses the line by an overbridge at the Ilminster end of the platform. An ornate oil lamp stands at the top of the path and there are various posts with brackets for hanging oil lamps in winter." It would be the guard's duty to light and extinguish these lamps. Five trains a day operated in each direction taking about 45 minutes for the 15 - mile journey from Taunton to Chard, having made stops at Thornfalcon, Hatch, Ilton, Ilminster and Donyatt.

Amazing lunch!

While there was already a church in Thorncombe, the current one was built, incorporating elements from the old church, in the late 19th century. Some of its older elements include the Sanctuary Chair, from 1650, or the arch under the tower, from the 14th century. The weathercock on the tower dates back to the 18th century.

Chard Reservoir is no longer used as a commercial reservoir but is managed as a nature reserve. A lovely, peaceful spot to stop and watch the water birds.

Built in 1842 to provide water for the local canal this is now a nature reserve and fishing lake managed by South Somerset District Council.

Nice statue of a girl waiting for the train that will never come along the well maintained gravel track but some sharp changes in direction make the run from ilminster to chard confusing if you expect to be on the old railway tracks

This 13th century Anglican church is a Grade II listed building and, while its age is impressive, it holds a far more intriguing treasure. It has a surviving copy of ‘Foxes Book of Martyrs’, first published in 1563. It’s not everyday you get to see a book that old. The largest publishing effort in England at that time, the book is filled with woodcut impressions and is a work of Protestant history. This copy lies in a glass cabinet in the church and is well worth seeing.
