Vicus parvus Weston (scilicet "fundus occidentalis", quod nomen alia compita plura huius regionis habent; agnomine Latino "super Mare" ab episcopo quodam causa discretiva addito), in paroeciam saeculo XIII elevatus, ab omnibus fere ignotus est nisi quod lapis calaminaris(en) e monte adiacenti Worlebury ab anno circiter 1560 effossa est.[1] Ad litora Manicae Bristoliensis positus, aeri salubri fruens, solem occidentem spectans, saeculo XVIII exeunte Weston locum otiosum fit: iam anno circa 1773 Anna More(en) scriptrix hic ad salutem recreandam venit et in paroecia Uphill morabat. Subito saeculo XIX ineunte augeri coepit: ad Weston mox conveniebant et breve spatium degebant familiae modestiores Bristolienses, ab anno 1841 per viam ferream iter facientes: ferrivia enim a Bristolio Exoniam tendens nuper perfecta est, designatore Isambardo Kingdom Brunel qui his annis in Weston-super-Mare habitabat. Taliter Cardiffenses Noviburgensesque, navibus traiectoribus trans Manicam profectae, ad molem Birnbeck anno 1867 architecto Eugenio Birch perfectam descendebant.
