Synopsis:
The new edition of John Rutter's classic text, which was first published in 1829, is finally here! This revised edition of Rutter's substantial and detailed work not only explores a range of popular local attractions, such as Brockley Hall and Leigh Court, but also identifies points of geological interest during the 1800s. This exciting new book is a true gem for anyone interested in the fascinating history of Somerset and its attractions. Areas covered include: Nailsea, Long Aston, Weston-Super-Mare, Chew Magna, Brockley and Bristol.
About the Author: John Rutter was born in Bristol on the 10th of April 1796 and was the youngest of seven children. In July 1818 he married the daughter of a Quaker draper. That same year he published his first pamphlet, summarising the history of a piece of countryside south-east of Shaftesbury. Delineations of the North Western Division of the County of Somerset was first published in 1829 and was the result of two excursions Rutter made in 1828.
