More about this scene
Here the River Parrett heads towards the sea. Bridgwater was an important port, with railway docks and the terminus of the Taunton and Bridgwater Canal. Its well-known corrugated clay pantiles were widely used, shipped by barge and railway wagon. This view looks east into Eastover to the more industrial part of Bridgwater; unfortunately, J Sander's grandiose 1880s corner-turreted building has gone. Its replacement is truly dire, but York House on the left survives.
