About

Castle Cary is a small market town centred around its historic market house, built from local honey-coloured stone. The town's layout still follows its medieval plan, with narrow streets radiating from the central square. The area is primarily agricultural, with rolling fields and pastureland defining the surrounding landscape. A notable feature is the Carymoor Environmental Centre, located on a former landfill site, which focuses on sustainability education.

The parish of Charlton Mackrell lies to the east, while the village of Ansford is contiguous with the town itself. Kenton Mandeville is a smaller, more dispersed settlement to the south, characterised by farms and rural lanes rather than a central village core. The entire area is traversed by the River Cary, a defining geographical feature. Local agriculture includes dairy farming and some cider apple production, consistent with much of central Somerset.
