Welham Somerset Map

About Welham

Welham, a quiet hamlet in Somerset, breathes the ancient air of England's South West. It lies 3.2 km east-south-east of Castle Cary (from Castle Cary: bearing 114°T, OS grid ST 670 310), and is situated south-west of Shepton Montague village. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of greens and golds under the vast English sky, speak of generations of husbandry, their contours shaped by the slow, persistent turning of the earth. A scattering of stone cottages, their roofs softened by moss and lichen, huddle together as if for warmth, catching the low-angled sunlight that spills across the gentle Somerset landscape. The quietude here is profound, broken only by the murmur of unseen water or the distant bleating of sheep, a delicate counterpoint to the enduring stone.
