Axbridge can trace its history back to the time of King Alfred when it was one of 30 places fortified to defend Wessex against the Vikings. It was close to the Royal Hunting Forest of Mendip and was granted a Royal Charter by King John in 1202, allowing it to hold markets among other privileges. An important wool producer in the Middle Ages, Axbridge has always been at the centre of things. Indeed, in earlier times, it was a river port. This was reflected in its early charters allowing it to hold markets, fairs and become a Royal Borough. It even had its own mint, with coins showing the town s symbol the Lamb and Flag. The layout of the town has changed little over the centuries, a medieval town expanding on a fortified Saxon burgh and even today visitors can wander the winding streets that remain at the heart of this charming place and soak up hundreds of years of the histories of ordinary lives.
