Shoscombe


Shoscombe is a small village and civil parish in the valley of the Wellow Brook in north-east Somerset, about 7 miles (11 km) south of the world Heritage city of Bath and about 3 miles (4.8 km) north east of Radstock.
The parish has a population of 443. 
From September 1929 until March 1966 Shoscombe had a railway station, Shoscombe and Single Hill Halt, on the main line
of the Somerset and Dorset joint Railway.
Shoscombe Parish is made up of six separate hamlets, Stoney Littleton, Single Hill, Shoscombe Vale, Shoscombe village, Double Hill and White Hill each benefitting from the peace and quiet afforded by their rural setting.
The traditional houses and cottages that are found here are mainly constructed from lias limestone, their colouring nestles unobtrusively in the landscape.
The community values the wildlife, the flora and fauna that can be found here, 
and many enjoy walking the footpaths that criss-cross the parish.
Shoscombe has an active community with many groups and clubs which are held in the village hall, school,
public house and church.
Please help to look after this very special place.​
