Sets of stepping stones across rivers are rare in Somerset. The only two I have come across so far are across the River Barle near Withypool and across the River Brue in Bruton, just to the west of the packhorse bridge. According to the Somerset Historic Environment Record, the stepping stones in Bruton are modern and were put there sometime after 1982.
