About

Wedmore sits on the western edge of the Somerset Levels, occupying higher ground above drained peat moors. The village has a stone parish church and a small market place with narrow lanes and older houses. Local life revolves around agriculture, small shops, a weekly market and community events; seasonal harvest and cider production form part of the local economy. The surrounding land shows the rectangular pattern of rhynes and drainage ditches, with occasional pumping stations and willow beds that mark field boundaries.

A few miles west, Mark is a compact village set amid low-lying pasture and fenland. The parish church and a cluster of cottages sit along lanes that run to isolated farms and orchards. Public footpaths and bridleways cross the fields and link both settlements, offering views over the Levels toward nearby ridgelines. The area is used for grazing and hay meadows managed for breeding waders; small field ponds and drainage sluices are common features. Local conservation groups work on riverbanks and reedbeds to maintain habitat and keep the drainage network functioning.
