(better known as Clarks; Started in 1825, by Quaker brothers Cyrus and James
Clark)
(i) Street, Somerset
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street,_Somerset
(a village in the county of Somerset; Its name comes from a 12th century
causeway from Glastonbury which was built to transport local Blue Lias stone
from what is now Street to rebuild Glastonbury Abbey)
(ii) Bath, Somerset
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath,_Somerset
(Nennius, a ninth-century historian, mentions a "Hot Lake" in the land * * *
and adds "It is surrounded by a wall, made of brick and stone, and men may
go there to bathe at any time, and every man can have the kind of bath he
likes. If he wants, it will be a cold bath; and if he wants a hot bath, it
will be hot". Bede also describes hot baths in the geographical introduction
to the Ecclesiastical History in terms very similar to those of Nennius. *
* * The Anglo-Saxons called the town Baðum, Baðan or Baðon,
meaning "at the baths," and this was the source of the present name)
