Those aren't white lines

Image: © Neil Owen Taken: 5 Sep 2013

These marks in Horsepond Lane (formerly the Wayhure) are in fact granite markers that point to some of Bridgwater's past. In the thirteenth century the lane was a lot narrower; however, the marks are also thought to indicate the eastern extent of the former Franciscan Friary, which was here until the Dissolution in 1538. The lane was only widened in 2008.
