    Wincanton Facts – Did you know…

    1. How Very Dare You!
      John Wesley, once visited, calling the town, ‘one of the dullest places in all of the county’. Founder of the Methodist Church wasn’t renowned for his sense of fun… Pot/kettle Mr Wesley?!?
    2. Twins
      Wincanton hit the headlines when it tried to become the first town in the UK to be twinned with a fictional town, Ankh-Morpork the main town in Sir Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels.
    3. Oh No You Don’t
      Regional powers weren’t impressed and refused to let the town to change its road signs stating “twin towns actually have to exist”.
    4. Rebel Yell
      Wincanton has a historical rebellious streak, in 1685 some locals supported the short lived Monmouth Rebellion. Things didn’t go well for the rebellion or the rebels, 6 of whom were hung, drawn and quartered in the market square as a warning to others.
    5. The Future’s Orange
      3 years later William of Orange landed in Devon and marched on London. A troop of William’s men came face to face with 100 Irish soldiers, stationed in the town by the King to quell future uprisings. During the battle, 15 men died, including the commanding officers from both sides.
    6. Coach & Horses
      The introduction of trains brought an end to the stagecoach route between the South West and London. Up to 17 coaches a day had passed through the town, the loss of trade saw some businesses close.

    About

    Known for its famous horse racing track, Wincanton is very much a rural community. The town’s heritage is marked by horses, from the stagecoach route that once linked Exeter and London, to today’s farming community and pleasure riders.

    Twinned itself with an imaginary town (see our Wincanton weird facts), Wincanton is just a little bit bonkers and a suitably Somerset way.

    Leisure

    There is a sports centre with swimming pool, gym, classes and children’s activities. If you prefer your exercise at a more leisurely pace, Wincanton Golf Course is a short stroll from the town centre. Undoubtedly the biggest local draw is the racecourse which holds a number of meets over the year, as well as other live events and entertainment.
