Knightstone Baths, Weston-super-Mare, 1844. 'Weston-super-Mare is what may be termed a railway watering-place: it is situated on the Great Western line, about twenty miles from Clifton, and has a fine strand, three miles in length. Several villas and other buildings are in progress; and in the immediate vicinity of the town, plantations of 400 acres have been tastefully laid out in walks, drives, &c. From its beautiful situation, and its contiguity to Cheltenham, Bath, and Clifton, Weston-super-Mare bids fair to become a very popular resort'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844,
