Whether you are looking from bridge, bank or boat, there is such a variety of creatures to spot, in the air, on the water, or teaming just under the surface; not forgetting the treasury of plants that line the river and rhynes, and cluster on the meadows. This stretch of the river is an important central point in the renewed River Parrett Trail that runs from source to sea.
