Draycott Somerset Map

About Draycott

Draycott, a Somerset hamlet, breathes the quiet air of the Mendip Hills. It lies 5.8 km south-east of Axbridge (from Axbridge: bearing 127°T, OS grid ST 477 509), and is situated north-west of Rodney Stoke village. The modest cluster of dwellings here is softened by the gentle curve of the land, where fields, often a rich tapestry of green in the springtime, roll towards the distant horizons. The light here possesses a particular quality, a soft, diffused luminescence that seems to cling to the ancient stone of the few buildings, lending them a timeless character. The immediate environs of Draycott are dominated by agricultural land, a testament to centuries of cultivation, where the scent of turned earth can sometimes mingle with the fresh breeze.
