Plot Gate, Somerset Weather
About Plot Gate, Somerset
Plot Gate emerges from the flat, industrious Somerset landscape as a modest collection of dwellings defined by the quiet persistence of its rural character. It lies 4.2 miles north-east of Somerton (from Somerton: bearing 56°T, OS grid ST 544 322), and is situated north-east of Barton St David village. The air here holds the damp, fertile scent of the nearby Cunlease Rhyne, which marks the northern boundary of the local grazing land with a slow and rhythmic precision. To the south, the slopes of King’s Hill rise with an unassuming gravity, catching the low-angled sun that seems to linger longer over the fields than it does in the deeper valleys. Plot Gate maintains a spare, uncluttered geography where the horizon is defined by the sharp lines of hedgerows and the shifting colours of the seasonal crops. A short distance to the south-west, the grass of Stocks Green softens the transition between the domestic hearths and the wider, open expanse of the county. The horizon remains wide and exposed, allowing the weather to track across the sky with a clarity that renders the local architecture secondary to the vastness of the light. Every path leading away from Plot Gate serves as a reminder of the proximity of the water, where the drainage ditches mirror the grey and blue tones of the Somerset clouds.
