Sedgemoor Services
Sedgemoor services is a motorway service station on the M5 motorway near the village of Rooks Bridge. The location of the services can be identified from a long distance because of their proximity to Brent Knoll, an isolated hill on the Somerset Levels.
The site opened in 1970 as Brent Knoll Rest Area, which was upgraded in 1987 to Service area status.
The northbound station is operated by Welcome Break, and the southbound station is operated by RoadChef
