Abbots Leigh
Abbots Leigh is a civil parish in Somerset. It is around 3 miles west of the centre of Bristol.
At first, the Middle English name of the village was Lega, and it didn't become Abbots Leigh until the mid-12th century. It has a modest population of 799.
The village has an interesting history. The manor house, which is named after the village, housed Charles II when he left to go to France in 1651. He lived with friends of the King's travelling companion and they had no idea of the King's identity during his stay. There is a footpath entitled Monarch's Way that marks the King's escape route through Abbots Leigh.
Abbots Leigh has a Gothic church of the Holy Trinity, founded in the 15th century. It was renewed and partially reconstructed between 1847-48 after a fire. The tower holds six bells, and three of them were cast by William Bilbie in 1781. It is a Grade II listed building under English Heritage.
Leigh Woods encompasses Abbots Leigh and is looked after by the National Trust. There are lots of walk maps available online for visitors to take part in.
