In Bruton Arts and crafts flourish here in terraced streets of historic houses, and it’s one of Somerset’s local centres of creativity, punching far above its weight. It’s also a great town for exploring. Follow any of the alleys which lead behind the houses, and you’ll see the now tamed and picturesque river winding through a deceptively deep valley in the heart of the town.
In medieval times Bruton Abbey was one of the great religious houses of Somerset.
