High St, Saltford
Saltford is one of those villages (near here, Chilcompton is another) which can seem to be just dull ribbon development on a main road, but which conceal an older heart, shown here, on a parallel road. Furthermore, the main railway line between Bath and Bristol passes through a short tunnel more or less underneath the photographer.

Saltford Manor
The Saltford Manor is thought to be the oldest continuously occupied private house in England, and has been designated as a Grade II listed building.
The original Norman construction was by William Fitz Robert, 2nd Earl of Gloucester, and was built on an estate owned at the time of the Domesday Book by Geoffrey de Montbray the Bishop of Coutances. It is contemporary with nearby Horton Court which was a prebendary house, therefore it is likely that Saltford had an association with Keynsham Abbey, and has long been associated with St Mary's Church in Saltford.
