Stoughton Cross Somerset Map

About Stoughton Cross

Stoughton Cross breathes the quiet air of Somerset's Mendip Hills, a place where the land remembers ancient footsteps. It lies 4.9 km south of Axbridge (from Axbridge: bearing 187°T, OS grid ST 424 496), and is situated west of Crickham village. The hamlet itself is a modest scattering of dwellings, their stone walls warmed by the gentle southern light, giving the impression of having been coaxed from the earth rather than built upon it. A palpable sense of stillness pervades Stoughton Cross, broken only by the murmur of wind through hedgerows and the distant bleating of sheep. Though lacking grand pronouncements of history, its very quietude suggests a continuity, a slow unfolding of lives lived amidst the subtle contours of the Somerset landscape.
