Not far from the towns of Street and Glastonbury, you’ll find the ancient royal town of Wessex, Somerton. Full of stunning 17th and 18th century architecture, such as the Hext Almshouses and Butter Cross, there are also beautiful old doors and signs, ancient churches, cottages and quirky road names, and lots of little nooks and crannies. Somerton is a not only a photographer’s paradise but it’s also the perfect place for a lovely day out.
You could either head there in the morning for a little wander around town, before getting a bite to eat in one of the lovely cafes or pubs, or make a day of it and involve a pleasant walk or cycle ride along the quiet country roads overlooking the town.
