Mendip Hills Bead ToggleThe Mendip Hills is a range of ancient limestone hills south of Bristol and Bath in Somerset. It is a wonderful place to explore with woodland, rocks, streams and caves. The Mendips has two trails, the West and East Mendip Way. The village of Cheddar is a popular destination and the outstanding limestone gorge and caves. The stunning scenery has inspired our Mendips Hills bead across the rolling hills. The bead is made from white glass and then rolled
bead is made with yellow glass to represent the long sandy beach with the white lines representing the white water washing onto the beach
The bead is then carefully decorated in a stripe of turquoise glass depicting the sea
