  • River Brue's Historic Bridges by David Jury
    River Brue’s Historic Bridges By David Jury The River Brue’s Historic Bridges In his book "Bridges of Britain" Geoffrey Wright writes: "Most bridges are fascinating, many are beautiful, particularly those spanning rivers in naturally attractive settings. The graceful curves and rhythms of arches, the texture of stone, the cold hardness of iron, the stark simplicity of iron, form constant contrasts with the living fluidity of the water which flows beneath." I cannot add anything to that – it is exactly what I see and feel when walking the rivers of Somerset and discover such a bridge. From source to sea there are 58 bridges that span the River Brue, they range from the simple plank bridge to the enormity of the structures that carry the M5 Motorway. This article will look at the history behind some of those bridges. From the river’s source the first bridge of note is Church Bridge in South Brewham, with it’s downstream arch straddling the river between two buildings. Figure 1 - Church Bridge South Brewham The existing bridge is circa 18th century but there was a bridge recorded here in 1258. Reaching Bruton, we find Church Bridge described by John Leland in 1525 as the " Est Bridge of 3 Archys of Stone", so not dissimilar to what we have today, but in 1757 the bridge was much narrower “barely wide enough for a carriage” and was widened on the east side sometime in the early part of the 19th century. Figure 2 - Church Bridge Bruton Close by we find that wonderful medieval Bow Bridge or Packhorse Bridge constructed in the 15th century with its graceful slightly pointed chamfered arch.

  • January 2020 Tour Report Somerset Levels in Winter with Mike Dilger
    Tour Report UK – Somerset Levels in Winter 12-15 January 2020 Starling murmuration Shapwick Heath Marsh harrier Shoveler Compiled by Helen Bryon 01962 302086 [email protected] www.wildlifeworldwide.com Tour Leader: Mike Dilger with seven participants Day 1: Meet-up at the hotel & visit to Shapwick Heath NNR Sunday 12 January 2020 The group convened at 2pm in the Swan Hotel’s front reception area in the centre of Wells so that tour leader Mike Dilger (MD) could formally welcome everyone. After introducing himself, MD then gave a brief outline as to the locations the group would visit and the key species he hoped the group would encounter during the course of their stay. With a very mixed weather picture looking increasingly likely, MD also made it clear that the itinerary would have to be fairly flexible to mitigate for the impending arrival of Storm Brendan! Each group member then introduced themselves, highlighting both their level of birding experience and which species they most hoped to catch up with during their stay on the Levels. With the weather calm (possibly before the storm), MD suggested they seize the initiative and head straight out to catch up with the famous starling murmuration, a wildlife spectacle for which the Somerset Levels in winter have become justifiably famous. Assembling at the minibus the group then travelled across to the western end of Shapwick NNR to get in position for the evening’s entertainment. MD had caught up with the spectacle the previous evening, as the roost location can be quite mobile, so up-to-date information on where the starlings ‘are currently going down’ is vital to avoid any disappointment.

  • Somerset Geology-A Good Rock Guide
    SOMERSET GEOLOGY-A GOOD ROCK GUIDE Hugh Prudden The great unconformity figured by De la Beche WELCOME TO SOMERSET Welcome to green fields, wild flower meadows, farm cider, Cheddar cheese, picturesque villages, wild moorland, peat moors, a spectacular coastline, quiet country lanes…… To which we can add a wealth of geological features. The gorge and caves at Cheddar are well-known. Further east near Frome there are Silurian volcanics, Carboniferous Limestone outcrops, Variscan thrust tectonics, Permo-Triassic conglomerates, sediment-filled fissures, a classic unconformity, Jurassic clays and limestones, Cretaceous Greensand and Chalk topped with Tertiary remnants including sarsen stones-a veritable geological park! Elsewhere in Mendip are reminders of coal and lead mining both in the field and museums. Today the Mendips are a major source of aggregates. The Mesozoic formations curve in an arc through southwest and southeast Somerset creating vales and escarpments that define the landscape and clearly have influenced the patterns of soils, land use and settlement as at Porlock. The church building stones mark the outcrops. Wilder country can be found in the Quantocks, Brendon Hills and Exmoor which are underlain by rocks of Devonian age and within which lie sunken blocks (half-grabens) containing Permo-Triassic sediments. The coastline contains exposures of Devonian sediments and tectonics west of Minehead adjoining the classic exposures of Mesozoic sediments and structural features which extend eastward to the Parrett estuary. The predominance of wave energy from the west and the large tidal range of the Bristol Channel has resulted in rapid cliff erosion and longshore drift to the east where there is a full suite of accretionary landforms: sandy beaches, storm ridges, salt marsh, and sand dunes popular with summer visitors.

Various partners drew up a 20 Year Flood Action Plan. Somerset Rivers Authority was launched in January 2015 to oversee that Plan and do the extra work that long experience has shown Somerset needs. There is no single answer to Somerset’s many flooding problems, and different parts of the county have different needs. That is why the SRA was set up as a partnership. Different organisations are limited in what they can do individually, but as SRA partners they can get more done by acting collectively.

  • Dartford Warbler 8 Dragonflies of Somerset 9 Desert Island Birds 11 Walks and Talks 13
    Issue 5 The Bittern March 2013 The newsletter of the Somerset Ornithological Society Pied-billed Grebe draws the crowds Julian Thomas reports Just before 6.30pm on Friday 15 February I received a phone call from an excited-sounding Steve Miller, saying that he had that afternoon been watching a Pied-billed Grebe from the second viewing platform at Ham Wall RSPB. He was the only one there when the bird appeared late in the afternoon, and though Tim Taylor, WildImaging he was joined shortly afterwards by two Bristol area birders, none of them had any phone numbers with Pied-billed Grebe, Ham Wall them to contact other birders – Steve eventually found my number by looking in a back issue of The Bittern! His description of a small grebe with a white eye-ring, a black throat, and a black band on the bill left no doubt whatsoever about the identity of the bird (see photo), though strangely the national bird information services seemed unconvinced. Steve is a regular and committed local RSPB volunteer – you are most likely to have come across his Geordie accent and easy smile in the hide at Greylake. That afternoon he chose at the last minute to go instead to Ham Wall in the hope of checking out Great White Egrets and was about to give up at the second platform and walk back when he heard a call he didn’t recognise. Happily, the source of the call soon swam out into view, and the rest, as they say, is history. The stroke of luck that led to Steve finding such a good bird is a fitting reward for all the hours he has freely given to help Somerset’s birds (and birders).

  • Somerset Levels and Moors: Assessment of the Impact of Water Level Management on Flood Risk
    Somerset Levels and Moors: Assessment of the impact of water level management on flood risk Report to Somerset Drainage Boards Consortium Charlie Stratford and Mike Acreman Centre for Ecology and Hydrology October 2014 Acknowledgements We would like to thank the following people for their assistance in compiling this document. Name Organisation Phil Brewin Somerset Drainage Board Consortium Nick Stevens Somerset Drainage Board Consortium Iain Sturdy Somerset Drainage Board Consortium Keith Fifield Environment Agency Murray Bush Environment Agency Christopher Matthews Environment Agency Executive Summary The aim of this document is to provide the reader with a robust understanding of the processes that affect surface-water flooding in the area of the Somerset Levels and Moors. Particular attention is paid to the storage of water in the ditch network and adjacent soil body and a key output of this report is an assessment of the role of ditch management in the severity of flood events. The Somerset Levels and Moors consist of low-lying organic peat soils sitting on top of marine silts and clays, and form in effect an impermeable bowl. Rain falling on the surrounding catchments will either infiltrate and recharge the groundwater system or find its way to the network of channels that pass through the Levels and Moors before ultimately entering the Bristol Channel. The area is naturally susceptible to flooding. Extensive drainage was carried out in the 17 th and 18 th centuries with the aim of making the land more accessible and increasing its agricultural value. The drainage network is principally managed to minimise the impact of flooding, enable agricultural production and also provide conditions required for the conservation of the natural and historic environment.

The Levels are renowned for their winter floods, though over the past hundred years or so farming and drainage has meant that water is generally kept off the land. Nature Reserves that join up across the Levels help maintain water levels and ensure that during the summer wading birds have moist habitats to nest. The abundance of water and mild temperatures meant that thousands of birds including various duck species and Lapwings were present – they often vacate the area and fly off to mainland Europe during very cold spells. While they were spread out across a wider expanse of wetlands, we still caught up with good numbers and had excellent views of Shoveler, Wigeon, Teal, Gadwall, and Pintail.
