Upper Benter Somerset Map

About Upper Benter

Upper Benter, a quiet collection of dwellings, finds its place upon the Somerset landscape, a subtle presence against the rolling Mendip Hills. It lies 5.3 km south-south-west of Midsomer Norton (from Midsomer Norton: bearing 203°T, OS grid ST 642 493), and is situated south of Chilcompton village. The surrounding fields, often veined with the rich, dark earth characteristic of this part of England, seem to hold the memory of generations of farming. A faint scent of damp soil and distant woodsmoke often drifts through the air, a testament to the enduring agricultural life of Upper Benter. The light here, particularly in the late afternoon, can cast long, golden shadows across the undulating terrain, lending a painterly quality to the everyday.
