About Higher Burrow

Higher Burrow breathes the quiet dignity of the Somerset countryside, a place where hedgerows knit the landscape together with a patient, green logic. It lies 3.9 km north-west of South Petherton (from South Petherton: bearing 321°T, OS grid ST 407 200), and is situated west of Stembridge village. The air here often carries a faint, earthy perfume, a blend of damp soil and distant hayfields, especially as dusk softens the edges of the surrounding fields. Though not a place of grand pronouncements, Higher Burrow possesses a grounded charm, its lanes winding with a gentle reluctance, as if reluctant to disturb the ancient peace. The houses, mostly of local stone, seem to have grown from the very earth, their roofs mellowed by countless seasons, each telling a silent story of quiet lives lived. A particular quality of light often bathes this corner of Somerset, a pearlescent glow that can make even the most ordinary of scenes possess a fleeting, almost ethereal beauty.
