NJB Hoofcare - Area of Operation for Axbridge, Somerset

Axbridge is a picturesque former market town on the southern fringe of the Mendip Hills. This small town has a medieval market square, narrow streets and ancient timber framed buildings. Although the river Axe is over a mile away from the town now, it is believed that once it was much closer, hence the name of the town.<br /><br />At two points there was a mint operating in the town, and it had a royal residence. The decline of the textile industry hit the town hard, and its railway link was removed in the 1960s under Dr Beeching.<br /><br />The town has remained small since then, but is a great place to visit the Mendip Hills. There are still enough farms around Axbridge to make the cattle population large enough for us to visit regularly for:
