Burnham-on-sea
Burnham-on-Sea is a town in Somerset, located around the mouth of the River Parrett and Bridgewater Bay. Before the eighteenth century, Burnham was a little fishing village. Its expansion started when it became a common seaside resort throughout the Victorian time, at a time when seaside holidays were incredibly trendy. It's part of the parish of Burnham-on-Sea and Heybridge, and its town council is shared with Highbridge, a neighbouring market town. As recorded in the 2011 Census, the population of the town was around 20,000. Resulting from the town's positioning on the border of the Somerset Levels and moors where they meet the Bristol Channel, Burnham's history is dominated by land reclamation and sea defences since the Roman era. As a consequence of the town's position near the mouth of the River Parrett, there is a higher threat to boats in the region. Lighthouses are, therefore, significant landmarks near the town, with the original lighthouse, the Round Tower, constructed to take over from the light on the top of the fourteenth century town of St. Andrews Church used to reduce the number of shipwrecks. The High Lighthouse is 34 metres tall, and one lighthouse is known as 'Lighthouse on Legs'. The building of a stone pier was completed in 1858 by the Somerset Central Railway. Shortly after its establishment in 1860, a steam service to Wales started, though it was not a commercial success. A second steamer service, concrete pier, completed after three years of work in 1914, is referred to as the shortest pier in Britain. Regardless of its compact size, the pier was shortlisted as being among the leading five piers in Britain.
