Situated in the ancient harbour town of Watchet, West Somerset, The Lynda Cotton Gallery was established over thirty five years ago. Watchet’s beaches are legendary for their rich harvests of fossils. The port has been visited by the author and revolutionary Daniel de Foe, and inspired artist Turner, who produced an engraving of the town. It is possible to visit Watchet by steam train, as it is part of the longest privately owned railway in England. By road, Watchet is about 18 miles from both Taunton, via the A358, and Bridgwater, on the A39. The gallery specialises in original works of art, both contemporary and period.
