10th September
Today in 1816, Mary Shelley and her husband, Percy, arrived in Bath. Mary’s journal states: “Arrive at Bath about two – dine and spend the evening in looking for lodgings”.
Mary didn’t spend that much time in Somerset, but her stay in Bath was very significant. Staying until early 1817, she wrote much of Frankenstein whilst living there. She was only 19 at the time.
Mary features in On This Day in Somerset.

St Aldelms Well, Doulting, Somerset. A spring that is the source of River Sheppey. Said to have curative properties - somewhat undermined by the fact that St Aldelm died, shortly after arriving here.

It is not usual for one Mason to be Master of more than one Lodge consecutively, and many jurisdictions expressly forbid it. However, Victor Dover was Master of the oldest English Lodge - Royal Somerset and Inverness Lodge 4 - and the then youngest Lodge - Swakely Lodge 6634 - in 1948.

A stream winds through fields on the Holnicote estate, #Somerset. The rewilding projects help “store water during drought… and slow water during extreme rainfall“.
“Nature is providing solutions to some of the biggest challenges facing society today,” said Ben Eardley, the project manager at the Holnicote estate.
“By reconnecting river systems with the surrounding area and creating natural sponges in the landscape, we’ve created a system that stores water during drought, keeping wetlands and the surrounding habitats healthy, and slows water during storms and periods of extreme rainfall, helping to protect villages from the risk of flooding downstream.”
