East Chinnock is a small village and civil parish in South Somerset, Somerset, England, set in typical rolling countryside a short distance from the market town of Yeovil. The settlement has a compact feel of stone cottages, farm buildings and lanes, reflecting its rural agricultural setting and long-standing country village character.
Historically the village grew around farming and a parish church with medieval roots, and today it combines that heritage with a quiet commuter element for nearby towns. Community life is focused on the village hall, parish council and local events, so while it is peaceful and largely agricultural, it retains a strong local identity and easy access to services in the surrounding area.
