About

Langport sits on the River Parrett in South Somerset, where quays and old wharves mark its history as an inland river port. The town is immediately adjoined by the parish of Huish Episcopi, home to the parish church and the secondary school that takes its name, both serving the surrounding villages. A narrow stone bridge crosses the Parrett at Langport, and the town front aligns with the river so that moored boats and flood gates are part of everyday sightlines. The river and the network of drains shape roads and fields here rather than a rigid street grid.

Long Sutton lies a short distance from Langport amid drained pasture and arable land on the northern edge of the Somerset Levels. The village clusters around its church and hall, with lanes linking farms and the linear pattern of drainage ditches. Water management is visible in sluices and the line of the King’s Sedgemoor Drain nearby, which meets the Parrett system and has influenced settlement, field boundaries and local routes for centuries.
