Howley Somerset Map

About Howley

Howley lies in the gentle folds of Somerset, a place where the soft light of the South West seems to linger a little longer. It lies 5.5 km west of Chard (from Chard: bearing 280°T, OS grid ST 267 096), and is situated east-north-east of Yarcombe village. The landscape around Howley breathes a quiet resilience, its fields often holding the scent of damp earth and the distant bleating of sheep, a constant murmur beneath the sky. The lanes that wind through this hamlet often carry the dappled shade of ancient hedgerows, a living testament to centuries of careful tending. In the stillness of the evenings, the air can carry the faint, sweet perfume of wild honeysuckle, a subtle signature of the countryside. Howley itself, though small, possesses a sense of enduring character, its few dwellings a part of the enduring pattern of the land.
