Small clusters of houses, their brickwork sometimes softened by creeping ivy, suggest a history of gradual growth, each addition a quiet conversation with the land that has shaped Thatch Leach. The nearby waterways, carrying the rainwater from the higher ground, add their own subtle soundtrack, a constant, gentle flow that has been a part of this landscape for as long as anyone can recall.
