East Huntspill is a small village and civil parish in Somerset, England, set on the low-lying Somerset Levels at the foot of the Polden Hills and only a few miles from Bridgwater. Its flat, reclaimed landscape and network of drains and rhynes give the area a strongly agricultural feel and make it notable for wetland birdlife and open skies.
Locally the community is centred on farming, a modest cluster of services and a village hall, with many residents commuting to nearby towns; the landscape has also been shaped by 20th-century engineering such as the Huntspill River, built during the war to manage water and industry. There are a scattering of older buildings and a quiet, community-led social life that reflects the parish’s rural history and close ties to the Levels.
