| Robert Abbott, William Cass and William Churchill, men of Somerton, joined the Duke of Monmouth to fight for "God and Liberty" in June 1685 and did not return home. The Royal Army under the Earl of Feversham occupied Somerton for two days in July 1685 just before the Battle of Sedgemoor. After Monmouth's defeat seven of his followers were condemned to be hanged near here in the town. |
