This quintessential village is in the district of Mendip and provides glorious views of the surrounding Mendip hills. Locally you will find a Co-Op supermarket, Farleigh Road farm shop with cafe and the highly regarded George Inn public house, one of a number of establishments that claims to be Britain’s oldest tavern. Located in the centre of the village. It was built in the 14th or 15th century, as a wool store for the priory at neighbouring Hinton Charterhouse and to accommodate travellers and merchants coming to the annual wool fairs that were held in the village from the late 13th century until 1902. The local church of St Philip and St James dates from the 14th century with restoration in 1847 by Sir George Gilbert Scott. It has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade II listed building.
