Ruggin, a quiet corner of Somerset, holds its secrets close. It lies 4.7 km east-south-east of Wellington (from Wellington: bearing 114°T, OS grid ST 181 186), and is situated south-south-east of West Buckland village. Here, the land slopes gently, catching the west country light in a way that softens the edges of the hedgerows and lends a mellow tone to the stone cottages. The air often carries the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, a subtle perfume that speaks of seasons turning. Though small, Ruggin possesses a certain enduring character, like a well-worn stone that has seen countless dawns paint the sky. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of greens and golds depending on the time of year, hum with the quiet industry of the countryside.
