Birchill, a quiet collection of dwellings, breathes the air of East Devon. It lies 4.8 km north of Axminster (from Axminster: bearing 11°T, OS grid ST 306 032), and is situated south-south-west of Chardstock village. The land here rolls with a subtle grace, where fields, often a patchwork of green and gold under the wide English sky, give way to hedgerows that seem to hold the secrets of generations. A particular quality of light often falls upon Birchill, softened by the distant presence of ancient woodlands, lending an almost ethereal glow to the stone walls and slate roofs. The quiet lanes, worn smooth by the passage of time and infrequent traffic, carry the faint scent of damp earth and wild garlic, a constant reminder of the surrounding natural world.
