This is on the edge of The Meads which is a floodplane close to the center of town, it is allowed to flood a number of times each winter to protect the town and water is then pumped away when watercourses can cope with extra capacity, during the dry season cattle graze on the lush grass however this fence was not erected with enough strength to allow for cattle having a good rub , In the distance are the lower reaches of the Quantock Hills, A large view would be appreciated.

They are neither fields or Eco park at the moment even the pigeons look dejected, one of the many times the area has flooded this year, our local council intends to spend a £140.000 installing paths and benches in the area, hope it's all waterproof and fixed down.

An area known as The Meads, A 42 acre flood plain that divides the western area of town, In summer it's a haven for wildlife, dog walkers, children and courting couples it is now protected as an Eco park.
