Somerset Road, Monmouth
Viewed from Wonastow Road. The bilingual name sign shows that the Welsh for Somerset is
Gwlad yr haf, meaning Summer Land. Various sources give various origins for the name Somerset.
One is that Sumorsaete (recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle) means "the people of the summer lands". The Celts, who were here before the Saxons, called it Gwlad yr haf. The Saxons, invading in the later 7th century described the area as the native Celts had described it earlier. In sunshine, the bright green Spring grass of the Somerset Levels can be seen clearly across the Bristol Channel from coastal SE Wales, which perhaps inspired the name.
