About

Ruishton and North Curry sit on the eastern edge of the Somerset Levels in Somerset. North Curry occupies a ridge of clay and sandstone above the marshes and centres on a broad village green and the parish church of St Peter and St Paul, whose medieval tower marks the skyline. Ruishton forms part of the combined parish with Thornfalcon and includes Ruishton Court, a listed country house set among farmland. The surrounding landscape is a patchwork of pasture, arable fields and drained marsh known locally as rhynes, crossed by hedgerows and public footpaths that follow old parish boundaries.

Local life is organised around village halls, pubs and small community groups that run markets, summer events on the green and maintenance of footpaths and hedgerows. Farms still shape the pattern of lanes and occasional cottage clusters, while reedbeds and drainage channels influence how land is used after winter rains. The area is used by walkers and cyclists who link lanes and bridleways, and by residents who travel into nearby towns for larger services.
