Bridgwater not Bridgewater Storage
For some reason we've had a few queries recently as to whether we should be spelling Bridgwater with an 'e' i.e. Bridgewater. Obviously these queries have come from people living outside the area. However we thought we'd look in to why it is spelt without an 'e'. According to Wikipedia Bridgwater was originally called Brigg meaning Quay. After the Norman invasion it was given to Walter Douai who was a Norman Prince and hence it became called Brigg Walter. Eventually it was shortened to Bridgwater although there is an alternative of this story that it is actually from Bridge Walter, i.e. the bridge of Walter. So there you have it, so when people are looking for Bridgewater storage, they should be looking for Bridgwater storage.
