Well done to all who had a go at last week’s Mystery Photo. The photograph was indeed taken in Mells.

Before we congratulate this week’s correct guesses, we must congratulate Neil Gillard for guessing last week’s photo of Camerton Station. The Journal apologises for overlooking your answer last week.

Back to this week, well done to the following for guessing Mells correctly:

Well done to Erin Brian, who said: “That’s The Cross at Mells, the white cottage to the right of the pedestrians with the tiny side window became the village Post Office.”

Rosemary Carter also guessed Mells and said: “The mystery photograph is of the village of Mells from Lime Kiln Hill, showing the Post Office - the white building on the right at Woodlands End - and St. Andrews church in the background.”

Mells is famous for its lovely architecture, ancient streets and dramatic location and research suggests that the area around Mells has been inhabited since prehistoric times.

The Horner family acquired Mells Manor in the early 16th century and played a significant role in the village’s history. One of the family’s ancestors, Thomas Horner, is often associated with the nursery rhyme "Little Jack Horner”, although the connection is more folklore than fact.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, Mells and the surrounding area became part of the Somerset Coalfield which increased activity and population growth to the village prior to the industry’s decline.
