About Northay

Northay rests in a landscape that hums with the quiet industry of its past. It lies 4.7 km west-north-west of Chard (from Chard: bearing 304°T, OS grid ST 282 112), and is situated west of Combe St Nicholas village. The lanes that thread through Northay often catch the low, honeyed light of late afternoon, illuminating the weathered stone of its cottages and the deep green of surrounding fields. Evidence of its agricultural heritage is still present in the scattered farmsteads, their barns standing like silent sentinels against the sky. The air here carries a subtle scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, a fragrance that speaks of generations who have worked this land. Northay, though small, possesses a stillness that invites contemplation, a quiet echo of the lives that have unfolded within its embrace.
