Please will you explain this to me, robinp? I'm assuming the quote is from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" but how do you get to Weston Super Mare from there? Thanks.

Weston is known locally as Weston super Mud as the sea is a very long way away at low tide. There have been several poems written about it but I don't really think that can be the reasoning.
Maybe someone else can enlighten us.

It still looks like there is an anagram , and i am not offering the above as an answer just ? maybe.

Hopefully the original poster can enlighten us! You dont just make that stuff up because it fits the letter count.

Thanks for that Imagcq.
My first thought was an anagram but there are only 14 letters before 'mixture'.

Thanks for your replies That was what I came up with but couldn't make any connection ,the place name is a word within the answer ,I think maybe it has something to do with the Island of Jura .

Morning, guys! We've just come back from a not-so -muddy as-usual walk with the dog!
I would think that maybe a combination of what you've both come up with? Rossim's 'mud rather than water' and Imacq's knowledge that Coleridge once lived there? Seems to fit the clue we've been given? although quite how Jura comes into this.....?! but then I don't have the paper and am not sure what the compiler is after?
