About Merridge

Merridge emerges from the folded terrain of the Quantock Hills as a quiet collection of stone and slate. It lies 5.0 miles west of North Petherton (from North Petherton: bearing 281°T, OS grid ST 209 345), and is situated west of Enmore village. The landscape here possesses a brooding, ancient stillness, defined by the sharp rise of Wind Down to the south-east where the light catches the gorse in long, amber streaks. To the east, the deep, shadowed cleft of Holwell Combe draws the morning mist away from the fields, leaving the air sharpened by the damp earth. Merridge remains tethered to this topography, its lanes turning abruptly to follow the contours of the rising ground. A short distance to the north, the surface of Hawkridge Reservoir mirrors the grey-blue Somerset sky, acting as a cool, glass-like anchor for the surrounding slopes. The buildings of Merridge hold their own against these vast, open stretches, built with a heavy, utilitarian grace that speaks of centuries spent weathering the Atlantic winds. Life here moves in accordance with the slow seasonal turning of the hills, far removed from the sharp clamour of the modern world.
