'Porlock Weir lies about 1.5 miles west of Porlock, Somerset and is a small settlement which has grown up around the harbour. Many cottages around the area are very old and Porlock Weir is a popular visitor attraction.' Sharon if you 'google' it there's pages of info. It's a lovely place to visit very close to Minehead in fact.
