About Bridgwater
BridgwaterBridgwater is a town in Somerset in the South West of England. One of the main manufacturing towns in Somerset, its traditional products such as bricks and tiles have given way to a more diverse range of products including car parts, plastics and animal feed. Its location close to the M5 motorway means it is an ideal location for industry and modern Bridgwater has fully embraced this and is one of Somerset's main employment areas as a result.
