Crickham Somerset Map

About Crickham

Crickham rests in a dip of Somerset's gentle land, a place where the sky seems to lean a little closer. It lies 4.8 km south of Axbridge (from Axbridge: bearing 177°T, OS grid ST 432 497), and is situated west-north-west of Cocklake village. The lanes here, often shadowed by ancient hedgerows, possess a quiet dignity, their surfaces worn smooth by generations of passage. A faint scent of damp earth and wild garlic can sometimes be coaxed from the air, especially after a spring shower. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of greens and golds, roll away towards the Mendip Hills, their distant contours softened by the prevailing light. Crickham’s modest church, its stone mellowed by the elements, stands as a silent sentinel, its spire a slender finger pointing towards the heavens.
