Old Way, Somerset Weather
About Old Way, Somerset
Old Way reveals itself as a quiet gathering of dwellings tucked into the low-lying pastoral folds of Somerset. It lies 1.6 miles north of Ilminster (from Ilminster: bearing 11°T, OS grid ST 363 172), and is situated east-south-east of Ilton village. A silvered light often clings to the fields here, catching the reeds where Cad Brook winds its way through the damp, fertile earth towards the north. The land rises with a sudden, gentle insistence toward the heights of Puckington Hill, which watches over the surrounding pasture with a calm, prehistoric stillness. Old Way remains defined by these modest shifts in elevation, where the drainage of the soil dictates the pattern of the hedgerows and the wanderings of the narrow lanes. Winter frosts sharpen the silhouettes of the skeletal trees, casting long, ink-dark shadows that stretch across the quiet verges. Every lane in Old Way seems to hold the memory of cartwheels and the slow, rhythmic passage of seasons, undisturbed by the hurried pulse of the wider world. The atmosphere here is one of damp, verdant endurance, a place where the air tastes of rain and the turning of the heavy, clay-rich loam.
