Howley, Somerset Weather
About Howley, Somerset
Howley emerges from the verdant folds of the Somerset landscape as a modest collection of stone and silence. It lies 3.4 miles west of Chard (from Chard: bearing 280°T, OS grid ST 267 096), and is situated east-north-east of Yarcombe village. The light here seems to catch on the damp surfaces of the surrounding fields, illuminating the subtle rise of Cleave Hill to the east-south-east, where the earth holds its breath against the sky. A mere stone’s throw to the north, the waters of Laps Water mirror the passing clouds, turning the horizon into a fluid, shifting canvas. Ancient rhythms persist in the soil, marked by the faint, earthwork shadows of the hillfort resting just south-south-west of the local farm. Howley maintains a quiet distance from the clamour of modern thoroughfares, favouring the slow, deliberate pace of agricultural life. The air carries a crisp, clean clarity, sharpened by the nearby valley winds that brush against the hedges. Visitors moving through Howley often find that the landscape demands a slower pulse, as if the very geology of the region expects a contemplative pause from those who tread its paths.
