New for 2024, this tour will focus on the industrial and commercial heritage of the River Tone between North Street bridge in the centre of Taunton and French Weir Park on the edge of Long Run Meadow, an important part of the town’s flood defence and home to an extensive range of flora and fauna.
The 1.5-2km route will follow fairly level paths and pavements and provide a glimpse into a now forgotten world when the River Tone was the centre of a thriving import/export trade that contributed so much to the town’s prosperity.
Walking duration 2 hours. Booking required, £4.50.
