One of the notable aspects of Burnham-on-Sea's history is its iconic lighthouse. Known as the "Lighthouse on Legs", this structure, built in 1832, is unique in its design and stands nine metres high on the beach itself. Unlike traditional lighthouses, it is elevated on nine wooden piers or "legs", allowing the tide to flow beneath it. The lighthouse is still operational, serving as a navigational aid to vessels in the Bristol Channel, and has become a significant symbol of the town's maritime heritage.

Fun Fact !
In terms of geographical interest, Burnham-on-Sea boasts one of the longest sandy beaches in Europe. The beach, known as Berrow Beach, extends over six miles from Burnham to Brean Down, a promontory off the coast of Somerset. It is not just its length that makes this beach notable; it is also home to a shipwreck visible at low tide. The SS Nornen, a Norwegian barque, ran aground in 1897, and its remains have become an integral part of the local landscape, attracting photographers and beachgoers alike.
Wikipedia Says
Burnham-on-Sea is a seaside town in Somerset, England, at the mouth of the River Parrett, upon Bridgwater Bay. Burnham was a small fishing village until the late 18th century when it began to grow because of its popularity as a seaside resort. Burnham-on-Sea forms part of the parish of Burnham-on-Sea and Highbridge and shares a town council with its neighbouring small market town of Highbridge. According to the 2011 census the population of the parish (including Highbridge) was 19,576, of which the most populous wards 'Burnham Central' and 'Burnham North'; totalled 13,601.Burnham-on-Sea is famous for its low lighthouse. The lighthouse was built in 1832 and is a Grade-II listed building with a red and white striped facade. The position of the town on the edge of the Somerset Levels and moors where they meet the Bristol Channel, has resulted in a history dominated by land reclamation and sea defences since Roman times. Burnham was seriously affected by the Bristol Channel floods of 1607, with the present curved concrete wall being completed in 1988. There have been many shipwrecks on the Gore Sands, which lie just offshore and can be exposed at low tides. Lighthouses are hence prominent landmarks in the town, with the original lighthouse known as the Round Tower built to replace the light on the top of the 14th-century tower of St Andrews Church. The 110-foot (34-metre) pillar or High Lighthouse and the low wooden pile lighthouse or Lighthouse on legs on the beach were built to replace it. The town's first lifeboat was provided in 1836 by the Corporation of Bridgwater.
