The Spinney

Our verdict

Village-walk furniture: a spinney you pass through rather than go to. Its virtue is position — string it into a Kingston St Mary loop with Beacon Coppice and the churchyard's famous tower and you've a fine gentle hour.

A little copse on the footpath network above Kingston St Mary, under the first slopes of the Quantocks — a shady link in the village's web of field walks.

A small village spinney, open at all times. Footpath access.
