About Peasedown St John

Peasedown St John, a place where the Mendip Hills begin their gentle rise, holds a character all its own. It lies 3.0 km north-north-east of Radstock (from Radstock: bearing 29°T, OS grid ST 703 574), and is situated south-east of Carlingcott village. The broad sweep of the surrounding countryside, a patchwork of fields and ancient hedgerows, often catches the soft, luminous light of the South West, lending a quiet glow to the stone cottages that form the heart of Peasedown St John. Once a hub for the coal mining that shaped so much of this region, the echoes of that industry now resonate in the very earth beneath one's feet, a silent testament to generations of labour. The village green, a verdant expanse, offers a place for communal gathering, its grass worn smooth by countless footsteps, a subtle reminder of the enduring life of this corner of England.
