About Cross
Cross, a Somerset hamlet, catches the low afternoon sun on its ancient stone walls. It lies 1.9 km west of Axbridge (from Axbridge: bearing 276°T, OS grid ST 411 547), and is situated east-south-east of Compton Bishop village. The land hereabouts holds a gentle, almost resigned quality, the Mendip Hills rising with a soft, wooded presence to the north. Ancient drovers' tracks, softened by centuries of hoof and wheel, still whisper across the fields that surround Cross, hinting at a past where livestock and travellers moved with a different kind of urgency. The air, especially after a rain, carries the clean scent of damp earth and distant hedgerows, a subtle perfume that clings to the low stone cottages. Here, the quietude is not an absence of sound, but a rich tapestry of rustling leaves, the distant bleating of sheep, and the soft murmur of the Axe flowing nearby.
