One source states that the white house, now 66 Clyce Road, was built in 1806 for the keeper of the New Clyce Bridge lock which controls the flow of the River Brue and blocks the tidal inflow from the Bristol Channel. The lock (clyce is the local word) is now controlled from the Environment Agency compound on the right.
