Charlton Musgrove is a small rural parish in Somerset, England, set in rolling agricultural countryside a few miles from the market town of Wincanton. The area is characteristically pastoral, with hedged fields, small copses and lanes that suit walking and equestrian activity, and it sits within easy reach of larger road routes serving the south-west.

Historically it has the feel of a long-established village community, with a parish church and a number of traditional stone cottages and farm buildings. The local economy remains largely agricultural with some residents commuting to nearby towns; social life is centred on village events, the parish council and occasional community gatherings that maintain a strong local identity.
