About Bathway

Bathway lies quietly where the Mendip Hills begin to soften their contours. It lies 7.3 km west-south-west of Midsomer Norton (from Midsomer Norton: bearing 254°T, OS grid ST 593 522), and is situated south-west of Chewton Mendip village. The air here often carries a faint, earthy scent, a reminder of the agricultural fields that stretch out around it, their patchwork quilt of greens and golds shifting with the passing clouds. Ancient hedgerows, thick with hawthorn and bramble, trace the boundaries of old landholdings, whispering tales of generations who have worked this soil. The light, when it breaks through the frequent Somerset haze, has a peculiar, almost liquid quality, bathing the stone cottages and the single, unassuming parish church in a gentle glow. Bathway itself is a place of quiet observation, where the occasional passing car seems to break a long, contemplative silence.
