About Burlescombe

Burlescombe, a quiet hamlet in Mid Devon, whispers its secrets to the passing breeze. It lies 7.6 km west-south-west of Wellington (from Wellington: bearing 237°T, OS grid ST 074 166), and is situated south-east of Great Fossend village. The land here, a patchwork of greens and browns, unfolds with a gentle grace, hinting at the ancient paths trod by generations. Though small, Burlescombe carries the echo of a more industrious past, a time when the very earth yielded its bounty through quarrying and agriculture. The quality of light, particularly in the late afternoon, casts a warm, honeyed glow upon the stone cottages and the surrounding fields, lending a serene beauty to the landscape. A sense of quietude prevails, a peaceful respite where the subtle murmur of the countryside becomes the dominant sound.
