Cheddar is a large village and civil parish in the Sedgemoor district of the English county of Somerset. Cheddar is situated on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills, 9 miles north-west of Wells. The civil parish includes the hamlets of Nyland and Bradley Cross.
Cheddar Gorge, on the northern edge of the village, is the largest gorge in the United Kingdom and includes several show caves, including Gough's Cave. The gorge has been a centre of human settlement since Neolithic times including a Saxon palace. It has a temperate climate and provides a unique geological and biological environment that has been recognised by the designation of several Sites of Special Scientific Interest.
It is also the site of several limestone quarries. The village gave its name to Cheddar cheese and has been a centre for strawberry growing. The crop was formerly transported on the Cheddar Valley rail line, which closed in the late 1960s but is now a cycle path. The village is now a major tourist destination with several cultural and community facilities, including the Cheddar Show Caves Museum.
The area is underlain by Black Rock slate, Burrington Oolite and Clifton Down Limestone of the Carboniferous Limestone Series, which contain ooliths and fossil debris on top of Old Red Sandstone, and by Dolomitic Conglomerate of the Keuper. Cheddar Gorge, which is located on the edge of the village, is the largest gorge in the United Kingdom. The gorge is the site of the Cheddar Caves, where Cheddar Man was found in 1903.
Cheddar Reservoir is a near-circular artificial reservoir operated by Bristol Water. Dating from the 1930s, it has a capacity of 135 million gallons. Cheddar Wood and the smaller Macall's Wood form a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest from what remains of the wood of the Bishops of Bath and Wells in the 13th century and of King Edmund the Magnificent's wood in the 10th.
Close to the village and gorge are Batts Combe quarry and Callow Rock quarry, two of the active Quarries of the Mendip Hills where limestone is still extracted. It was on the Cheddar Valley line, a railway line that was opened in 1869 and closed in 1963. It became known as The Strawberry Line because of the large volume of locally-grown strawberries that it carried. It ran from Yatton railway station through Cheddar to Wells (Tucker Street) railway station and joined the East Somerset Railway to make a through route via Shepton Mallet (High Street) railway station to Witham.
( Cheddar - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting the city of Cheddar . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Cheddar - UK

Strawberry Line, Yatton - Winscombe, January 2019
Taking the train to Yatton I alight with my bike where I meet the start of the Strawberry Line, also known as the Cheddar Valley Railway, an 11 mile cycle route between Yatton and Chedder along the route of the disused railway. In this first part we depart Yatton around a gentle sweeping curve before proceeding across Biddle Street SSSI to arrive into Congresbury station, across the road we continue though the countryside, taking a deviation along a quiet lane and through Thatchers Orchard to arrive at Sandford & Banwell station, where, once back on the train continue through a wooded valley to arrive at the site of Winscombe station.
