[[Daw's Castle]] (''Dart's Castle'' or ''Dane's Castle'') is an [[Iron Age]] sea cliff [[hill fort]] about {{convert|0.5|mi}} to the west of the town. It was built and fortified, on the site of an earlier settlement, as a ''[[burh]]'' by [[Alfred the Great]], as part of his defences against [[Vikings|Viking]] raids from the [[Bristol Channel]] around 878 [[Anno Domini|AD]].{{sfn|Adkins|Adkins|1992|p=46}}{{sfn|Aston|1982}} It is situated on an east-west cliff about {{convert|80|m|ft}} above the sea, on a tapering spur of land bounded by the [[Washford River]] to the south.

There is no sign of Roman occupation, but the Anglo-Saxons took Watchet from the native Britons around AD 680. Under [[Alfred the Great]] (AD 871−901) Watchet became an important port, and coins minted here have been found as far away as [[Copenhagen]] and [[Stockholm]]. The ''[[Anglo-Saxon Chronicle]]'' records the early port being plundered by Danes led by Earl [[Ottir]] and a 'Hroald' (possibly Ottir's king [[Ragnall ua Ímair|Ragnall]]) in 987 and 997.{{sfn|Waite|1964}}
[[File:Looking down on Wansborough Papermill (geograph 1928760).jpg|thumb|left|[[Wansbrough Paper Mill]]]]
Watchet is believed to be the place where [[Decuman|Saint Decuman]] was killed around 706 and its parish church is dedicated to him. At the time of the ''[[Domesday Book]]'' Watchet was part of the estate held by [[William de Moyon]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Medieval town and port, Watchet |url=http://www.somersetheritage.org.uk/record/34163 |website=Somerset Historic Environment Record |publisher=Somerset County Council |

[[File:Watchet Harbour.jpg|thumb|Commercial shipping in the harbour in 1973]]
Watchet developed as a town thanks to its closeness to the minerals within the [[Brendon Hills]], and its access to the [[River Severn]] for onward shipping. Aside from local ships plying trade across the river, from 1564 onwards the port was used for import of salt and wine from [[France]].{{sfn|Farr|1954|pp=125-137}}

▲Local traditions include Lantern Night, which is held on 16 September and involves children in the town with candle lanterns made from hollowed out root vegetables such as [[Mangelwurzel]] or [[Rutabaga|swede]]. It was the last remaining reminder of the Watchet Fair (also known as St Decuman's Fair).{{sfn|Norman|1992|pp=29-30}} Another tradition is Queen Caturn's Day on the last Saturday of November. Watchet was famous for its blue dye and Queen Caturn was so impressed she bestowed the town's folk with cider and cakes as a reward for this. The tradition is carried on with costumes and celebrations.

Adjacent to the harbour is [[Watchet railway station|Watchet station]]. This is now an intermediate stop on the [[West Somerset Railway]], a largely [[steam]]-operated [[heritage railway]] that links [[Bishops Lydeard]], near [[Taunton]], with [[Minehead]]. The station was first opened on 31 March 1862 when the West Somerset Railway was opened from [[Norton Fitzwarren railway station|Norton Junction]]. The station was built as a terminus, as part of the commercial aim of the WSR was to provide a wider and cheaper distribution route for goods from the then major port of Watchet. On 16 July 1874 the line was extended westwards by the [[Minehead Railway]] Company, with an [[industrial railway]] siding provided at the same time into the [[Wansbrough Paper Mill]].<ref name=wsrorg>{{cite web|url=http://www.wsr.org.uk/wt.htm |title=WSR :: West Somerset Railway :: Watchet Station |accessdate=14 October 2008 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081122005427/http://www.wsr.org.uk/wt.htm |archivedate=22 November 2008 }}</ref> The GWR undertook many projects to increase the capacity of the line in the 1930s. [[Nationalisation]] in 1948 saw the GWR become the [[Western Region of British Railways]]. Freight traffic was withdrawn on 6 July 1964 and passenger trains on 4 January 1971.

The harbour was also linked, with a [[Watchet (WSMR) railway station|separate station]], to the independent [[West Somerset Mineral Railway]], that ran to [[iron ore]] mines in the [[Brendon Hills]] south west of the town. From Watchet the ore was carried across the Bristol Channel by ship to [[Newport, Wales|Newport]] and thence to [[Ebbw Vale]] for smelting to extract the iron. The line was ready for traffic from Watchet to Roadwater by April 1857,{{sfn|Mitchell|Smith|1990}}{{sfn|Thomas|1966}} Although the outward terminal of the line was to be the quay at Watchet, the pier had been practically unusable for some considerable time, and boats were beached and loaded direct from carts brought on to the foreshore.{{sfn|Farr|1954|pp=125-137}} After considerable public pressure, the Watchet Harbour Act was passed in 1857, placing it under the control of Commissioners; they built a new east pier and rebuilt the west pier; the work was finished in 1862, and 500 ton vessels could enter the harbour.{{sfn|Thomas|1966}} Passenger services were also provided from Watchet, however these

The [[Anglicanism|Anglican]] [[Church of St Decuman, Watchet|St Decuman's church]] is probably on an ancient pre-Christian site, on a hill top between Watchet and Williton.
The church was described by [[Francis Carolus Eeles]] ("St Decuman's Church") in 1932.
