  • 1 Pensford Village.Indd
    Pensford Village - A leisurely stroll of approximately 3 km (1.9 miles) Walk 1 One of a series of walks in and around Pensford Pensford Local History Group INTRODUCTION This walk meanders and loops through the historic village and is broken down into three sections. The maps and directions are colour-coded. For most visitors, Pensford is simply known for being the first village you get to heading south from Bristol on the A37. In fact, the A37 dissects the village leaving intact much of its medieval street layout. The origins of the name Pensford are debatable but the earliest version is Pendlesford which may be Anglo-Saxon or Celtic. Unlike the nearby hamlet of Belluton, there is no reference to Pensford in the Domesday Book and its early development is probably due to the fact it provided a crossing over the River Chew on the main route between Bristol, Wells and the South Coast. Its importance grew with the medieval wool and textile trades, by harnessing the power of the River Chew. In the late-C14, Somerset was the largest producer of woollen cloth (the country’s most important export) and the largest cloth market in Somerset was in Pensford. The evidence of later industries, particularly coal, mills and the railways, is perhaps more visible in today’s landscape. For John Locke, the philosopher, Pensford and Belluton were his home. He spent his early life here until the age of about 15. He was a protégé of Alexander Popham who owned the Hunstrete Estate (known locally as the Popham Estate) which included Publow.
