North Curry sits on a ridge of high ground overlooking the Somerset Levels, roughly five miles east of Taunton. It is a substantial village, characterized by its winding lanes and a mix of mellow hamlets. At its heart is the 14th-century Church of St Peter and St Paul, often called the ‘Cathedral of the Moors’ due to its size and its prominent octagonal tower which serves as a landmark for miles across the surrounding wetlands. Life here centers around a well-utilized village square, which hosts a post office and a general store, alongside a popular primary school and a traditional pub. Geographically, the village feels pleasantly isolated despite its proximity to the county town, with the nearby River Tone and the Curry Moor offering vast expanses for walking. Historically, the area was once an important center for willow growing and basket making, a heritage that still lingers in the landscape of the nearby moors and rhynes.
