Link, Gloucestershire Weather
About Link, Gloucestershire
Link emerges from the limestone topography of the Mendip Hills as a modest collection of dwellings defined by the rugged character of its surroundings. It lies 3.9 miles north-east of Axbridge (from Axbridge: bearing 44°T, OS grid ST 475 590), and is situated south-west of Burrington village. The earth here holds a certain austerity, as Link falls entirely within the Burrington Combe SSSI, where the thin, rocky soil forces the hawthorn and gorse to grow with a deliberate, gnarled tenacity. To the south, the iconic Rock of Ages stands as a silent sentinel, its prominence a reminder of the geological forces that carved these deep, dramatic ravines. A short distance away, the ancient earthworks of the Slight Univallate Hillfort on Burrington Ham bear witness to a long human presence that predates the modern boundaries of the hamlet. The light in this part of Gloucestershire possesses a peculiar clarity, catching the grey stone of the local cottages and rendering them almost silver against the encroaching shadow of the hills. Link remains a place where the proximity of prehistoric monuments and protected natural habitats keeps the pace of daily life tethered to the slow, enduring rhythm of the landscape.
