An easy flat walk on pavements and paved pathways that explores the historic market town of Bridgwater, home to Europe’s largest illuminated carnival which lights up the streets every November. Along the route are Bridgwater Arts Centre – one of the first in the country – as well as the Somerset Brick and Tile Museum, and the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal and Docks.

Bridgwater’s rich commercial, mercantile and often bloody political history is celebrated in the Blake Museum, birthplace of one of England’s greatest naval heroes Admiral Robert Blake, of whom Nelson said “I am not the equal”.
