Charlton rests within the gentle Somerset countryside, a place where the land slopes with a quiet grace. It lies 1.3 km east-south-east of Shepton Mallet (from Shepton Mallet: bearing 112°T, OS grid ST 630 430), and is situated north-north-east of Cannard's Grave village. The air here often carries the subtle scent of damp earth and distant hedgerows, a fragrance deepened by the soft, diffused light that filters through the western skies. Old stone cottages, their walls weathered by the passage of seasons, cluster around a modest green, a patch of enduring green against the muted tones of surrounding fields. The nearby Mendip Hills, their ancient contours a constant presence on the horizon, lend a sense of timelessness to Charlton's quiet existence.
