  Highbridge, Somerset - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Highbridge is a Somerset market town situated on very edge of the Somerset Levels near the mouth of the River Brue.
Highbridge grew in importance as a regional market and industrial town during the latter half of the 19th century and the early part of the 20th century.
Highbridge was the birthplace of noted British spy Frank Foley (the "British Schindler"), Edward Higgins (General of the Salvation Army in the early 1930s), and of the Colonel (the biggest bull in Britain, BBC News).

 BBC - Somerset - Faith - Highbridge honours Frank Foley with statue
It was commissioned in 2000 by Rev Mark Bond of Highbridge Vicarage on behalf of the Frank Foley Committee, who have also erected a plaque outside the house where he was born.
Born in Highbridge in 1884, Major Frank Foley was an MI6 agent who used his cover as a passport control officer at the British Embassy in Berlin during the 1930s to provide the necessary papers for Jewish people to leave Nazi Germany for sanctuary.
We are very proud to have a hero that was born and bred in Somerset and all that he achieved should be a reminder for us all to look after each other.

 Highbridge History - a Historical Guide to Highbridge, Somerset, UK
The Markets at Highbridge, already a communal meeting place for country folk from nearby places such as Edithmead, South and East Brent, Vole, Mark, Watchfield, Huntspill and many others too numerous to mention, became almost comparable with city markets.
Employment was plentiful and was of course a good source of income for the Highbridge coffers, augmented by the SandDJR who provided nationwide land links for both passengers and cargo.
As the shipping fell off, so did the rail traffic despite the market facilities of Highbridge, until, in the mid 60s, the railway closed as had the wharf several years previously.
