It lies 3.5 miles north of Radstock (from Radstock: bearing 5°T, OS grid ST 693 605), and is situated north of Tunley village.

To the west, the rounded silhouette of Priest Barrow rises against the horizon, marking the ancient boundaries of an earth that has supported agriculture for centuries. Priston maintains a quiet dignity, evidenced by the sturdy architecture that seems to grow directly from the underlying bedrock. The air often carries a crisp, damp scent from the surrounding fields, suggesting a long-standing intimacy between the inhabitants and the changing seasons. Residents maintain a vibrant cultural life, hosting an annual festival that celebrates the local harvest and the enduring strength of the parish. Such gatherings reveal a community deeply connected to the rhythm of the soil and the enduring character of this specific geography.
