The name "strawberry line" refers to the strawberries which were grown in fields around Cheddar, and transported from there by train.

The National Cycle Network is a network of cycle routes. It was created by the charity Sustrans Link
(Sustainable Transport), aided by a National Lottery grant.
Many routes aim to minimise contact with motor traffic, though 70% of them are on roads. In some cases the NCN uses pedestrian routes, disused railways, minor roads, canal towpaths, or traffic-calmed routes in towns and cities.
