Burnham-on-Crouch Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Essex, and around 20 miles southeast of Chelmsford, is the town of Burnham-on-Crouch.
Geographically, the town is situated on the Dengie Peninsula at the north bank of the River Crouch close to the river's mouth where it meets the North Sea. The Dengie Peninsula is bound by the River Crouch to the south and the River Blackwater to the north, and is predominantly rural marshland.
In 1253 a market charter was granted to Burnham-on-Crouch. Historic industries in the town included farming and fishing. In 1661 the rights to oyster beds in the river were leased to local companies and, over time, the town became renowned for its oysters which were transported via a fishing port here.
In 1889 the railway arrived in Burnham-on-Crouch courtesy of the Great Eastern Railway. The station serves the town to this day, and is situated on the Crouch Valley Line which runs between Southminster to the north and Wickford to the west, which in turn connects to London Liverpool Street. Trains to and from London take approximately 70 minutes.
Burnham-on-Crouch contributed to the war effort during both world wars. In 1915 an airfield was established in the vicinity of the town to assist in defending against zeppelin attacks. The airfield closed in 1919. During the Second World War a military training base was present here.
Today, Burnham-on-Crouch is strongly associated with sailing. In 1893 the inaugural Burnham Week Regatta was held here. This is an annual racing event for yachts and dinghies on the River Crouch.

The Real England-Burnham on Crouch by Bill Vanderford
Award-Winning Writer/Photographer/Videographer, Bill Vanderford ( presents a short video about Burnham on Crouch, which is an old English village along the River Crouch...an estuary of the River Thames. It gives an insight to the Real England that people would love to see!
Visit Burnham-on-Crouch
Called often the Cowes of the East Burnham-on-Crouch has a distinctly nautical atmosphere. Historically it has benefitted from its location on the coast, first as a ferry port, later as a fishing port known for its oyster beds, and most recently as a centre for yachting and arts. The town retains an air of friendly, laid-back relaxation, seemingly unscarred by the frenetic way of todays' life. Burnham is a favourite haunt for day-trippers and although many people visit the town because of the quaint streets and historic buildings, its museum, excellent riverside and parkland walks and the wide choice of eating places and pubs, undoubtedly the majority visit because of the sailing.

Burnham on Crouch by Air - DJI Mini 2 Drone - Aerial Videography
Filmed over two beautiful early spring mornings, come and take a short journey along the foreshore at Burnham on Crouch, Essex. Situated on the north shore of the River Crouch, Burnham is considered one of Britain's finest places for yachting.
Obscure claim to fame. The Essex town is mentioned in the song Billericay Dickie, by Ian Dury. This song alludes to Burnham's somewhat upmarket status in the county, with the invitation Oh golly, oh gosh, Come and lie on the couch, With a nice bit of posh, From Burnham-on-Crouch.

SWC Free Walk 162, North Fambridge to Burnham-on-Crouch. 30/9/12.
North Fambridge, in Essex, is just 7m above sea level, so that gives some idea of the kind of walk in store today. 'Officially' a 13 miler, today's version was reduced to just over 10, following travel delays...
Starting out from the station, there's a short inland section, crossing back over the Crouch Valley Line, prior to reaching the banks of The River Crouch. Hereafter, it's easy walking, mainly along the sea wall, with far-reaching views across the mud flats and open countryside. There's a nature reserve (though not much activity today!), creeks, marinas, and, pleasingly, solitude. Upon reaching Burnham, there's a variety of tea options available.
Unfortunately, due to said delays, the inland section to the lunchtime pub (at a lofty 47m above sea level!) was only recorded from a distance, reducing the walk by about 3 miles.
A very pleasant walk, if peace and quiet is your thing, though not particularly one for advocates of variety. Good scope for further walk development in this quiet corner of the county.
(A brisk South Westerly has affected video quality today, unfortunately).
Short walk from Burnham-on-Crouch to The Cliff
The Burnham-on-Crouch coastal path from the marina to The Cliff is one of shortest, but most beautiful walks in Essex.
Money can't buy moments like this. The sun was out, the tide was in and we stumbled upon this wonderful chap playing an instrument he'd made himself out of a cigar box.
The Cliff itself is about one mile from the boatyard we met the fella. Visit at low tide and it's a chance to look for prehistoric shark around the beach below the cliffs.

Wedmore is a village and civil parish in the county of Somerset, England. It is situated on raised ground, in the Somerset Levels between the River Axe and River Brue, often called the Isle of Wedmore. It forms part of Sedgemoor district. The parish consists of three main villages: Wedmore, Blackford and Theale, with 14 hamlets including Bagley, Cocklake, Mudgley, Panborough and Sand. Wedmore has a population of 3,318 according to the 2011 census.
Its facilities include a medical and dental practice, pharmacy, butcher's, a village store with off licence, three pubs, restaurant, café and several other local shops. It is located 4 miles (6 km) south of Cheddar, 7 miles (11 km) west of the city of Wells and 7 miles (11 km) north west of Glastonbury.
The name Wedmore in Old English probably means hunting lodge and there was a Saxon royal estate in the area. Centwine gained control of the area in 682 and named it 'Vadomaer' after one of the Saxon leaders Vado the famous. After winning the Battle of Ethandun, Alfred the Great caused the Viking leader Guthrum and his followers to be baptised at Aller and then celebrated at Wedmore. After this the Vikings withdrew to East Anglia.
The Treaty of Wedmore is a term used by historians for an event referred to by the monk Asser in his Life of Alfred, outlining how in 878 the Viking leader Guthrum accepted Alfred the Great as his adoptive father. No such treaty still exists but there is a document that is not specifically linked to Wedmore that is a Treaty of Alfred and Guthrum. Alfred then left Wedmore to his son Edward the Elder. Wedmore was part of the hundred of Bempstone. Earthworks from a complex of buildings, including a hall and chapel, surrounded by a moat have been identified. The site is believed to have been a bishops palace demolished by John Harewel in the 1380s.
It is situated on raised ground, in the Somerset Levels between the River Axe and River Brue, often called the Isle of Wedmore, which is composed of Blue Lias and marl. South of Wedmore are the Tealham and Tadham Moors, a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest which form part of the extensive grazing marsh and ditch systems of the Somerset Levels and Moors. The water table is high throughout the greater part of the year with winter flooding occurring annually, by over-topping of the River Brue.
Historically, and apart from school services, Wedmore has been poorly served. The first regularly-timed daily bus service began in the mid-1980s — a regular service between Wells to the east and Burnham-on-Sea to the west. There is also a service between Glastonbury to the south-east and Shipham via Cheddar to the north.
( Wedmore - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Wedmore . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Wedmore - UK
