 Dunster
|
|
| Dunster,
sitting on the edge of Exmoor, this town is worth a visit to
wander along the main street with its medieval buildings. The
parish church is 15th century, one of the finest in Somerset.
The town was preserved
as it is today as it is a relic of the time when it and castle
was owned by the Luttrells family. They owned it for 600 years
until 1950.
In the centre is the
octangular Yarn Market, built in 1609 when cloth was important
to the town's trade.
Its main attraction
is the town's castle above the town.
