Gurney Slade rests, a quiet collection of dwellings where the Mendip Hills begin to soften. It lies 5.7 km north of Shepton Mallet (from Shepton Mallet: bearing 4°T, OS grid ST 622 492), and is situated east-south-east of Binegar village. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and distant sheep, a subtle perfume that clings to the stone cottages. Beneath the wide, often luminous Somerset sky, Gurney Slade feels like a place where time moves with a particular, unhurried grace, its landscape a gentle embrace of rolling greens and ancient hedgerows. The nearby quarry, now largely quiet, whispers of a past industry, a testament to the enduring relationship between the people of Gurney Slade and the very bedrock of their home.
