Howleigh Somerset Map

About Howleigh

Howleigh, a scattering of dwellings in Somerset, breathes with the quiet persistence of the land. It lies 5.9 km south-south-west of Taunton (from Taunton: bearing 196°T, OS grid ST 206 186), and is situated north-west of Blagdon Hill village. The air here often carries the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, a subtle perfume that clings to the stone walls and thatched roofs. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of greens and golds under the wide Somerset sky, seem to unfold with a gentle, unhurried grace, their contours shaped by generations of careful cultivation. In the late afternoon, the sun, when it breaks through, casts long, soft shadows that stretch across the lanes, lending a contemplative quality to the quietude of Howleigh.
