Pillbox on the west side of Westonzoyland Road railway bridge, Bridgwater
Located on the west side of Westonzoyland Road railway bridge. There is another pillbox on the east side of the bridge. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3165512
The pillboxes were part of The Taunton Stop Line, a World War II defensive line in SW England. It was designed to stop an enemy's advance from the west and in particular a rapid advance supported by armoured fighting vehicles (up to the size of a German medium tank) which may have broken through the forward defences.
After the war, farmers on whose land the pillboxes had been built, were paid £5 for each one they demolished. However, most of the very solid structures have survived, though many are in varying stages of decay after seven decades.

Eastern side of Eastover Youth & Community Centre, Bridgwater
Viewed across Westonzoyland Road.
Notices in front of the entrance on the western side show some of the users of the centre:
Budo Juku Martial Arts School;
Kyo-Kai Judo Club;
Little Angels Baby & Toddler Group.
The building looks like a former church. As the location is All Saints' Terrace,
a reasonable deduction is that this was formerly All Saints Church.

Cars in the cabbage patch, Bridgwater
My walking companion commented that this looked like cars in the cabbage patch.
This is an area of grass in which there are some cabbages growing, which is used as a vehicle display area for Byron Wynn Autos, St John Street premises. Viewed from Westonzoyland Road (the A372).
