Townsend Somerset Map

About Townsend

Townsend rests quietly in the Somerset countryside, a place where the hedgerows hold their secrets close. It lies 4.5 km south-west of Crewkerne (from Crewkerne: bearing 227°T, OS grid ST 408 067), and is situated east of Wayford village. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and distant hay, a primal perfume that clings to the stone walls and whispers through the scattered oaks. Though not a place of grand pronouncements, Townsend’s unassuming lanes often lead towards glimpses of the rolling Mendip Hills, their softened outlines a constant, gentle presence on the horizon. The cottages, their roofs a mosaic of weathered thatch and slate, seem to have grown from the very soil, their chimneys exhaling thin plumes of smoke like contented sighs.
