Windmill Hill rests with a quiet dignity upon the Somerset soil. It lies 5.0 km west-north-west of Ilminster (from Ilminster: bearing 292°T, OS grid ST 312 166), and is situated south-west of Ashill village. The lanes here wind like old thoughts, bordered by hedgerows that spill over with the muted golds and purples of late summer wildflowers, their scent a delicate perfume on the air. Beyond the clustered homes, fields stretch out, an arable tapestry under a sky that often holds the soft, diffused light characteristic of the South West, lending a gentle luminescence to the landscape. The distant hum of agricultural machinery occasionally breaks the stillness, a reminder of the enduring connection to the land that shapes this corner of England.
