Upper Coxley rests where the Mendip Hills begin their gentle surrender to the Somerset Levels. It lies 2.5 km south-west of Wells (from Wells: bearing 218°T, OS grid ST 533 437), and is situated east-south-east of Coxley Wick village. The air here often carries the faint, sweet scent of turned earth, a testament to the surrounding agricultural lands that have shaped its quiet existence for centuries. A subtle sheen can sometimes be observed on the surface of the River Sheppy as it meanders nearby, reflecting the soft, diffused light that filters through the ancient oak canopy. The very stones of the few scattered cottages seem to absorb this diffused luminosity, lending them a soft, aged glow. This modest hamlet, though lacking grand pronouncements, possesses a certain gravity, a feeling of enduring presence against the wide Somerset sky.
