Near here. From Somerset Villages in Colour. Kilmersdon is part of the Ammerdown estate. It lays claim to being the home of the story of Jack and Jill nursery rhyme - check out the wiki ''There is also a belief in Somerset that the rhyme records events in the village of Kilmersdon when a local girl became pregnant; the putative father is said to have died from a rockfall and the woman afterwards died in childbirth. The local surname of Gilson is therefore taken to derive from Gill's son.[33]''
