About

Monkton & North Curry ward lies in the low-lying Somerset Levels, characterised by a landscape of flat, drained agricultural land crisscrossed by drainage ditches known as rhynes. The area is primarily rural, with its settlements and farms connected by narrow, often straight roads. The River Tone forms a significant part of its western boundary, influencing the land's character and drainage. This is a working landscape, defined by pasture for dairy and beef cattle, and fields of arable crops.

The ward includes the larger village of North Curry, with its notable church tower visible across the levels, and the smaller hamlet of Henlade. The Taunton and Bridgwater Canal passes through the northern section, historically important for transport. Community life centres on the villages, with local facilities serving the surrounding farms. The area's specific history is tied to the ongoing management of water and flood defence, a constant feature of life on the levels.
