Minehead
Minehead is a seaside town and civil parish in the English county of Somerset. It rests on the south bank of the Bristol Channel, around 21 miles (34 kilometres) north-west of the county town of Taunton, 12 miles (19 km) from the border with the county of Devon and in proximity of the Exmoor National Park. According to the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 11981, meaning that it is the most populous town in the West Somerset local government region. There is indication of human occupation in the region since the Bronze and Iron Ages. There was a modest port at Minehead by 1380, which became a significant trading centre during the course of the medieval period. Most trade transferred to more substantial ports throughout the 20th century, but pleasure steamers did call at the port. A marked surge in building throughout the early years of the 20th century produced the wide main shopping avenue and adjacent streets with Edwardian-style architecture. There are a selection of schools and religious, cultural and sporting facilities including sailing and wind surfing and golf. A popular ancient local tradition involves the Hobby Horse, which takes to the streets for four days on the eve of the first of May each year, with accompanying musician and performers and rival horses. The town is the starting point of the South West Coast Path National Trail, which is the country's longest long-distance countryside hiking trail. The Minehead Railway was opened in 1874 and closed in 1971, but it has now been reopened as the West Somerset Railway.
