South Chard Somerset Map

About South Chard

South Chard, a quiet gathering of homes, exhales the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke. It lies 3.6 km south-south-east of Chard (from Chard: bearing 167°T, OS grid ST 329 050), and is situated south-south-east of Tatworth village. The fields here, often a patchwork of muted greens and browns under the wide Somerset sky, slope gently towards the unseen waters of the River Isle. A scattering of older farmhouses, their stone weathered to a soft grey, hint at generations who have worked this land, their lives marked by the slow turning of the seasons rather than the frantic march of progress. Even the air seems to hold a certain stillness, broken only by the cawing of rooks or the distant hum of machinery from the agricultural businesses that still form the backbone of South Chard's economy.
