About Weare

Weare emerges from the Somerset lowlands as a quiet collection of stone and timber that reflects the enduring character of the Mendip landscape. It lies 1.6 miles south-west of Axbridge (from Axbridge: bearing 219°T, OS grid ST 414 525), and is situated south-east of Lower Weare village. The light here catches the reeds of the nearby Broadmoor Rhyne, which winds through the damp meadows with a slow, silver persistence. To the south-east, the rise of Brinscombe Hill asserts a firm silhouette against the horizon, anchoring the flat, fertile plains that have sustained local agriculture for generations. Weare maintains a meditative stillness, where the rhythmic passage of water in the surrounding rhynes dictates the seasonal pulse of the fields. The architecture of the older dwellings mirrors the grey, weathered limestone harvested from the nearby hills, grounding the structures in their immediate geology. Visitors passing through find that Weare possesses a subtle gravity, a sense of place defined more by the shifting clouds over the Mendip plateau than by the clamour of modern industry.
