King Square, Garden square in Bridgwater, England.
King Square contains terraced houses with Flemish bond brick walls and Roman tile roofs, forming a traditional English urban layout pattern.
The square emerged between 1770 and 1800 on the former site of Bridgwater Castle, incorporating materials from the demolished fortress into its foundations.
The central war memorial, created in 1924, presents a mother figure holding a globe and the Book of Law while standing over representations of conflict.
The square maintains open public access and offers convenient parking options through nearby pay-and-display facilities and on-street spaces.
During renovations in 2008, workers discovered a section of the original castle curtain wall and a tunnel used for transporting goods from the port.
