Whitty, a quiet corner of Somerset, seems to hold the soft, diffused light of the West Country within its very stones. It lies 8.0 km south-east of Taunton (from Taunton: bearing 139°T, OS grid ST 275 182), and is situated east of Staple Fitzpaine village. The lanes here, often bordered by ancient hedgerows thick with hawthorn and bramble, wind gently through a landscape of fertile fields. Here and there, a particularly venerable oak tree stands sentinel, its branches reaching out as if to embrace the passing seasons. The air itself often carries a faint, earthy scent, a reminder of the agricultural heritage that has shaped Whitty for generations.
