English Heritage sites near Midsomer Norton Parish
STONEY LITTLETON LONG BARROW
5 miles from Midsomer Norton Parish
One of the finest accessible examples of a Neolithic chambered tomb, with its multiple burial chambers open to view. Bring a torch and experience the burial chambers at first hand.
STANTON DREW CIRCLES AND COVE
7 miles from Midsomer Norton Parish
Although this is the third largest complex of prehistoric standing stones in England, the three circles and three-stone ‘cove’ of Stanton Drew in Somerset are surprisingly little known. The Great Circle, 113 metres in diameter, is one of the largest stone circles in the country and has 26 surviving upright stones. Yet recent surveys have revealed that the circles and cove were just part of a much more elaborate and important ritual site than had previously been imagined.
NUNNEY CASTLE
7 miles from Midsomer Norton Parish
Picturesque moated castle built in the 1370s. Held for the King during the Civil War, falling to Parliamentarian cannon in 1645: the gun-damaged wall finally collapsing on Christmas Day 1910.
FARLEIGH HUNGERFORD CASTLE
9 miles from Midsomer Norton Parish
Impressive 14th century castle with hidden treasures and sinister past. Chapel with rare medieval wall paintings and in the crypt, the best collection of human-shaped lead coffins in Britain.
SIR BEVIL GRENVILLE'S MONUMENT

Erected to commemorate the heroism of a Royalist commander and his Cornish pikemen at the Battle of Lansdown, 1643, this monument marks the spot where he fell.
BRADFORD-ON-AVON TITHE BARN
11 miles from Midsomer Norton Parish
A spectacular 14th century monastic stone barn, 51 metres (168 feet) long, with an amazing timber cruck roof. Originally a part of the medieval farmstead belonging to Shaftesbury Abbey.
