5 Quirky Facts About Crewkerne
- 1066
In 1066 the local manor was the home of King Harold’s mistress Edith Swanneck, it was also the year Harold’s army went to meet William the Conqueror at Hastings. So, as he went into battle, he possibly had one eye on Crewkerne. - Monarch’s Way
The town lies on the Monarch’s Way, the route taken by Charles II after his defeat in the Battle of Worcester during the English Civil War. In 1689 William III worshipped in the town after landing in England during the Glorious Revolution. - Castle
In 1086 the town was featured in the Domesday Book (a feat that cities like London and Liverpool didn’t achieve) and the victorious William decided Crewkerne should be the site of one of his castles. Castle Hill now sits in the modern town. In the 17th century a manor house was built in the town possibly using stone taken from the original castle. - NASA
Crewkerne has links with the Royal Navy and NASA. In the medieval period the main industry was cloth making, by the 18th and 19th centuries cloth was still being produced as well as webbing and sails for the Royal Navy produced by Arthur Hart and Son. In 1981 the company made webbing for NASA’s space shuttle Columbia. - Atom
While not quite having the thrust of a space shuttle, the Ariel Atom is still a devastating piece of engineering. Produced exclusively in Crewkerne by the Ariel Motor Company, just 7 employees help hand build 100 cars a year, one of which flew around the test track at the hands of The Stig in BBC’s Top Gear.
