Englishcombe is a small village and civil parish in Bath and North East Somerset, lying just a couple of miles to the south‑west of the city of Bath. It sits in rolling, limestone countryside of Bath’s rural hinterland and is made up of stone cottages, farms and quiet lanes, so it’s popular with walkers and people who work in the city but prefer a village setting.
The parish has a long history reflected in its old buildings and a parish church dating back to the medieval period; historically the local economy revolved around agriculture and the supply of Bath stone for the city’s buildings. Today Englishcombe retains a distinctly rural, community feel while being influenced by the cultural and economic pull of nearby Bath, offering a peaceful base close to a major historic and tourist centre.
