Bridgwater, Market town in Sedgemoor, England
Bridgwater extends along the River Parrett, surrounded by the Mendip range to the north and Quantock hills to the west.
The Battle of Sedgemoor in 1685 marked the final pitched battle on English soil during the Monmouth Rebellion against King James II.
The annual Bridgwater Carnival features illuminated floats, performers, and processions through the streets, continuing a tradition from the 1880s.
The town connects to major transport routes via two M5 motorway junctions and maintains a railway station on the Bristol-Taunton line.
The Bridgwater and Taunton Canal system includes multiple locks and bridges, functioning as both a transport route and recreational waterway.
