Welcome to Netherclay

Netherclay is a small village located in the county of Somerset, England. The village is situated on the outskirts of Taunton, the county town of Somerset. Netherclay is a peaceful and picturesque village that is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village is home to a small community of residents who enjoy the tranquility and natural beauty of the area.

One of the main attractions of Netherclay is its proximity to the Quantock Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Quantock Hills are a range of hills that stretch from the coast at Watchet to the edge of the Somerset Levels. The hills are a popular destination for walkers, cyclists, and horse riders, and offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Netherclay is also close to the Blackdown Hills, another Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which is known for its rolling hills, wooded valleys, and picturesque villages.

Despite its rural location, Netherclay is well-connected to the rest of Somerset and beyond. The village is just a short drive from the M5 motorway, which provides easy access to Bristol, Exeter, and the South West of England. Taunton railway station is also nearby, with regular services to London, Bristol, and other major cities. Netherclay is a charming and peaceful village that offers a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
