Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Between Seaton and Colyford, the proposed route of the multi-user path crosses an area where salt-working took place in the eighteenth century, and possibly earlier. Palaeoenvironmental deposits have been located in the area of Seaton Marshes and there is a high potential for the preservation of organic material here, such as waterlogged wooden artefacts should they exist. The area around Colyford Common also contains remnants of complicated land divisions that evidence the high value of the land associated with the production of salt-hay in the medieval and post-medieval periods. Boundary stones and posts may still be present in situ but none were identified during the walkover survey. Both areas pass close to the remains of the World War II Taunton Stop Line. Running between Bridgwater and Axmouth, this was one of more than 50 defensive lines protecting England. It was constructed in 1940 but was never fully operational. Although some of the associated structures and features of the defences have been lost, many of them still survive, particularly in the Weycroft area. There is some data to suggest that evidence relating to the prehistoric and Roman periods might also be found along the cycle route but this is based on limited evidence well beyond the study areas.
