Background
History
Approximately 1 mi from the village is the Iron Age hill fort of Ruborough Camp. There was a tunnel, which has now been filled in, which gave the camp safe access to a nearby spring for water. The estate was owned after the Norman Conquest by William de Mohun of Dunster, 1st Earl of Somerset. Broomfield was part of the hundred of Andersfield.
