The Battle of Sedgemoor took place very close to the village of Westonzoyland in 1685. Those supporters of James Scott, the rebel Duke of Monmouth, were a numerical match for the royalists, but were comprehensively defeated. The battle has a trail laid out from the church to the battlefield, with markers such as this one.
