Fitzhead Somerset Map

About Fitzhead

Fitzhead surveys its quiet corner of Somerset with a gentle, enduring presence. It lies 4.1 km east of Wiveliscombe (from Wiveliscombe: bearing 82°T, OS grid ST 121 283), and is situated west of Halse village. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of greens and golds under the broad Somerset sky, seem to hold the very breath of the land, a calm exhalation that has settled over Fitzhead for centuries. Ancient hedgerows, thick with the scent of hawthorn in spring and the promise of blackberries in late summer, form the sinuous boundaries of its agricultural heartland. The small parish church, its stone weathered by countless seasons, stands as a silent sentinel, its spire a humble finger pointing towards the heavens, catching the soft, diffused light that often filters through the west country clouds. Fitzhead's lanes, often bordered by moss-covered walls and the quiet dignity of old trees, invite contemplation, each bend revealing another vista of pastoral tranquility.
