Porlock Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Porlock is a quiet coastal village in Somerset, England, situated in Exmoor five miles west of Minehead. The village has a population of 1,377 (2002 estimate). It adjoins a salt marsh nature reserve created when the lowland behind a high shingle embankment was breeched by the sea in the 1990s. Copses of white dead trees remind the visitor of when this was fresh water pasture. The South West Coast Path goes through Porlock, many walkers stopping rather than continuing on the gargantuan walk to Lynton.
Porlock is perhaps best-known in literature as source of the "man from Porlock" who interrupted Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
