More about this scene

Many of the town's elegant buildings were built during the 18th century, when the town prospered from the East Indies trade. Goods were carried on river barges between the busy seaport of Bridgwater and wharves here, and one of the entrepreneurs, George Stuckley, also ran a successful bank, which remained independent until taken over by the Westminster in 1909.
