OS Explorer Map 140 Quantock Hills and Bridgwater
This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike.
A Mud and Sand beach with numerous rocks and rock pools. Tides here are fast to rise and the mud can be thick. This is a good place to look for fossils. The water quality was not tested by the Marine Conservation Society in 2010. Local facilities include toilets, disabled toilets, shops, slipway and a campsite. Parking is available. Things to do include looking for fossils and exploring the rock pools. The walk to nearby Watchet to explore the town and harbour is pleasant.
