Historically, Wincanton is known for its brush making industry, and during the 19th century, it was a significant stopover point for coaches travelling between London and the South West of England. One of its most distinctive landmarks is the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul, a Grade II listed building dating back to the 14th century.

Wincanton is surrounded by several picturesque towns and villages.
