A History of the County of Somerset - VIII The Poldens and the Levels

About the author

R. W. Dunning

Summary

Somerset's Polden hills divide the county's central marshlands, Sedgemoor to the south and the Brue Valley to the north. Traces of human activity there include wooden trackways built across those marshes six thousand years ago. Most of the written sources tell the story of men from settlements on the nearby hills or isolated 'islands.'
