Moving Forward is a
Somerset County Council
initiative aimed at reducing
congestion and pollution
in Somerset. By raising
awareness and encouraging wider use of sustainable travel alternatives
such as walking, cycling, car share and public transport, we can
protect and improve our environment, our health and our quality of life.
Did you know that the majority of car trips are less than 2 miles?
These days it’s all too easy to just hop in the car without thinking,
even when we’re only popping round the corner. Walking or cycling
some of these small journeys instead, even occasionally, would make
a big difference. We hope this map will help you to explore some of
the options suitable for you.
To find out about other ways you can improve your quality of life
simply by making smarter choices about the way you travel, visit

Nearby, at the foot of Hendford Hill, the area surrounding the beautiful Nine
Springs has recently been transformed into a country park. With pathways
meandering through beech woods and waterside walks around a delightful
spring-fed lake, it is an idyllic setting popular with both local residents and
visitors. Barwick Park, just south of the town, is also well worth a visit to
see its four strange follies – Jack the Treacle Eater, the Needle, the Fish
Tower and Messiter’s Cone.

For those interested in the past, Yeovil’s long history is evident everywhere,
from the large Iron Age fort atop Ham Hill to the naming of its modern
pedestrian shopping precinct, The Quedam, to reflect the town’s Roman
roots. The Museum of South Somerset at Hendford houses many
fascinating exhibits and artefacts, giving its visitors the opportunity to trace
the changing face of Yeovil through the ages.

There’s so much more to Somerset than just its history. From
donkeys on the beach to quaint shops in small towns, or wide open
spaces with wildlife all around, there is something here for everyone
– and it can all be seen best by bicycle or on foot.

For those with a love of myth and legend, Somerset can fascinate
you with the legend of King Arthur. The Iron Age hill fort at South
Cadbury is the alleged site of Camelot and at Glastonbury Abbey, the
ancient monks claimed to have found the remains of this warrior and
his queen, Gwynevere. At Athelney stands a monument to another
monarch, King Alfred, reminding us of where he burnt the cakes.

For the historically minded visitor, the county is a positive treasure
trove. There are dozens of fine old churches and historic towns and
villages, such as Wells, with the gothic grandeur of its wonderful
12th-century cathedral and the nearby moated Bishop’s Palace
with its famous bell-ringing mute swans. Classic steam trains run
along the West Somerset Railway, the UK’s longest privately-owned
passenger line, to the coastal towns of Watchet and Minehead.

For those who prefer the challenge of mountain biking and hill
sports, the Quantocks, Mendips and Exmoor all provide exhilarating
opportunities to test your stamina against the hills and discover
some fantastic views.
Situated in beautiful countryside
on the Somerset/Dorset border
just west of the River Yeo,
Yeovil is the major town of
South Somerset. Once noted
for its 300-year-old glovemaking industry, it is now
better known for more modern
businesses such as Westland,
one of the world’s largest helicopter manufacturers, as well as for being
home to the world famous Fleet Air Arm Museum at nearby RNAS Yeovilton.
However, despite its commercial growth, Yeovil’s thriving street markets
confirm that it is still a country town at heart.
THE PARK
For walkers and cyclists seeking a relaxing rural jaunt, the Somerset
Levels are perfect touring country, with their meandering quiet lanes
and hill-free landscape. These ancient wetlands, rich in wildlife, are
home to one of Somerset’s oldest traditional skills – willow basket
weaving – an important craft for the production of a wide range of
items from lobster pots to hot air balloon baskets!

ROA
From the Mendip Hills in the north, to the Quantocks in the west and
the Blackdowns in the south, Somerset is a county of contrasting
landscapes and moods, offering many attractions to visitors keen on
exploring its rich heritage and delightful countryside.
