Welcome to Curland Common

Curland Common is a small village located in the county of Somerset, England. The village is situated in the heart of the Somerset Levels, which is a low-lying area of land that is prone to flooding. Despite this, Curland Common is a beautiful and peaceful place to live, with a strong sense of community and a rich history.

One of the most notable features of Curland Common is its beautiful church, St. John the Baptist. The church dates back to the 13th century and is a Grade II listed building. It is a stunning example of medieval architecture, with a beautiful tower and a number of interesting features, including a 15th-century font and a 17th-century pulpit. The church is still in use today and is a popular destination for visitors to the village.

Another important feature of Curland Common is its proximity to the Quantock Hills, which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Quantock Hills are a stunning range of hills that offer breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. They are home to a wide range of wildlife, including red deer, buzzards, and adders, and are a popular destination for walkers, cyclists, and horse riders. The hills are also home to a number of historic sites, including the Iron Age hill fort of Dowsborough and the medieval village of West Bagborough.
