Taunton Stop Line

Demolition chambers under a bridge over the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal — later filled with concrete and now appearing larger than they were originally.

The Taunton Stop Line was a World War II defensive line in southwest England. It was designed "to stop an enemy's advance from the west and in particular a rapid advance supported by armoured fighting vehicles (up to the size of a German medium tank) which may have broken through the forward defences."[1]
