  138|=Chard=, Somerset, 143, 145. A market town and parish. The town
     |consists chiefly of two streets, intersecting each other, composed
     |of good commodious houses. The church is a low building,
     |possessing nothing remarkable either in internal or external
     |decorations. At the angle where the two streets meet, stands an
     |ancient Gothic building, formerly a chapel, but now used as a town
     |hall.
     |
     |Chard contains 534 houses, and 2784 inhabitants. Several streams
     |run through the town, and keep it clean. The assizes were held
     |here formerly, and the town sent members to parliament; but it
     |lost the privilege by negligence. At the west end of the town
     |rises a very fine spring, conveyed by leaden pipes to four
     |conduits, which supply the inhabitants with water. The market is
     |held on Monday, and is abundantly supplied with corn.

     |situation near the mouth of the river Char. It stands at the foot
     |of an amazing hill, no less than 1000 feet high, opposite to which
     |is another 970 feet high. Here the Danes twice defeated the
     |English; but, in 833, they were in turn completely routed, with
     |the loss of nearly their whole fleet, consisting of 35 sail. It
