Burnhan-on-Sea is notable for its beach and [[mudflats]], the danger they pose to individuals and shipping, and the efforts locals have gone to to defend their town and to prevent loss of life. The [[Bristol Channel]] has the second highest [[tidal range]] in the world. The extensive mud flats at Burnham are charactersistic of [[Bridgwater Bay]] and the rest of the Bristol Channel where the tide can recide for over mile and a half. Over the years a string of people have died when they became trapped in mud and were over come by the rapidly rising waters. One of the earliest recorded historical incidents to affect the town was the [[Bristol_Channel_floods,_1607|Bristol Channel Floods of 1607]]. Today the town is defended from flooding by a massive curved concrete wall that runs along the Esplanade.

A local charity, Burnham-on-Sea Area Rescue Boat (BARB), was set up in 1992 to fund and operate rescue craft in the Bridgwater Bay area. The BARB boat house on Burnham sea front was built in 1994 by the [[Challenge Anneka]] TV show. In 2002 a five-year-old girl from Worcester called Lelaina Hall died on the mud flats before help could reach her.

The shortest pier in Britain on the sea front at Burnham-on-Sea.

Burnham-on-Sea is a town in Somerset, England, at the mouth of the River Parrett and Bridgwater Bay. The town is now a popular seaside resort, and is home to the shortest pier in Britain. Burnham remained a small village until the late 18th century. It forms part of the parish of Burnham-on-Sea and Highbridge. According to the 2001 census the population of the town was 13,797.

Burnhan-on-Sea is notable for its beach and mudflats, the danger they pose to individuals and shipping, and the efforts locals have gone to to defend their town and to prevent loss of life. The Bristol Channel has the second highest tidal range in the world. The extensive mud flats at Burnham are charactersistic of Bridgwater Bay and the rest of the Bristol Channel where the tide can recide for over mile and a half. Over the years a string of people have died when they became trapped in mud and were over come by the rapidly rising waters. One of the earliest recorded historical incidents to affect the town was the Bristol Channel Floods of 1607. Today the town is defended from flooding by a massive curved concrete wall that runs along the Esplanade.

The town's signature collection of lighthouses, including the Round Tower lighthouse of 1829, the Pillar Lighthouse[1] and the Lighthouse on legs.[2]

A local charity, Burnham-on-Sea Area Rescue Boat (BARB), was set up in 1992 to fund and operate rescue craft in the Bridgwater Bay area. The BARB boat house on Burnham sea front was built in 1994 by the Challenge Anneka TV show. In 2002 a five-year-old girl from Worcester called Lelaina Hall died on the mud flats before help could reach her.
