History of Welcome Break Sedgemoor (North) Services

Opened
1987
Former name
Brent Knoll Rest Area

Before it became Sedgemoor Services, the M5 had a pair of rest areas near Brent Knoll. Roadchef developed the southbound site into a full service area in 1986. Welcome Break’s northbound site followed in 1987, which is why the two stops sharing the Sedgemoor name have different operators today.
