A rebel brass
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.

The trail turns right
The path that leads from St Mary's church up to King's Drive, is part of the official trail of the Battle of Sedgemoor. The brown post directs historians north to the battle field.

Westonzoyland village hall
This community facility was, as its styling suggests, formerly a military building. The nearby R.A.F. Westonzoyland station was an occasional airfield from its founding in 1926, but the advent of WWII brought a vast increase in men and machinery. This building dates from 1942 and was used as a cinema and gymnasium. Later, after the end of hostilities, it became the village school but is now the hall, residing by the recreation ground.

Draining the excess
Westonzoyland can be found in the Somerset Levels and as such is never very far above the water table. Drainage ditches and rhynes criss-cross the village, like this one which appears under a path.

Food on their doorstep
One of three beehives on a narrow plot of land that is given over to allotments. Most of the produce is for the table although some flowers are present.
