However, such war memorials, which one encounters so frequently along the way, regardless of nationality, language, or name, are always a testimony – still significant and relevant today – to the horrors of war and tyranny. They therefore all have two essential functions, and this continues anew for each generation: -1- To commemorate and remember the victims -2- To remind people of the need to maintain peace

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.

There is a single pub called the “The Prince Of Wales” at Hamhill, which sells, ice cream, ales, ciders, and food… With out door seating, overlooking the rolling Slopes.

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

My favourite section of the stopline way, an easy chilled ride, particularly stunning in the summer but monumentally busy exactly when you think it would be.

Built during the 14th century, this beautiful church has a Gothic Somerset Tower which has a golden hue, thanks to its local hamstone material. A Grade I listed building, the Church of St Martin hasn’t changed much in its lengthy life, although it did undergo some renovation during the 19th century. Somerset has plenty of beautiful and old churches, but the tower of this one is particularly spectacular. It's clearly visible from the River Parrett Trail and can be rather magical if there's mist hanging in the air.

Owned and managed by the National Trust, Stoke-sub-Hamdon’s priory is a phenomenal group of 14th and 15th-century buildings, largely made from the local hamstone. Grade I listed and a scheduled ancient monument, the priory and its buildings have an old kind of grandeur to them. Despite its name, there isn’t and has never been a priory here. The site was built as a chantry college and was subsequently tenanted after the Dissolution. It’s a fascinating place to wander around and is a particularly good example of hamstone construction.

Ham Hill has been quarried for so many generations that it’s surprising there’s still a hill there at all. The local hamstone has a pretty honey yellow hue to it and many of the locals buildings, and indeed entire villages, have been built with it. The quarry has long been defunct and, left to nature’s own devices, it has become an intriguing landscape of grassy mounds. It’s fun to roam around, particularly if you have children in tow.

This 16th-century manor is built from local hamstone, giving it a wonderful yellow hue. While it’s privately owned and the home of a local polo club, it’s still a fascinating sight from the road. The manor underwent significant construction during the 17th and 18th centuries along with the addition of other barns and buildings. Fun fact: they hold wedding receptions there, if you’re in the market for a venue.

Good place to include it on your trip ..

Ham Hill affords wonderful views over Stoke-sub-Hamdon nestled in the countryside. The hill was quarried for local Ham Stone for many centuries and the 15-strong stone circle you find there was built by the Millennium Project to commemorate this. There is also a war memorial on the summit.
