A MAN was rescued after getting stuck on an embankment in Watchet.

Fire crews from Williton were called to the end of Anchor Street at 10.22pm last night to reports of a man stuck.

He had been walking on a footpath when he slipped and fell a short way down the bank and got stuck in brambles.

The fire crew assisted the uninjured man back up to the footpath from the slippery embankment.
