Huntspill is a small village and civil parish in Somerset, England, sitting on the southern edge of the Somerset Levels close to the River Parrett and roughly between Bridgwater and Highbridge. The parish is traditionally split between East and West settlements and feels typically low‑lying, with a patchwork of fields, drainage channels and small lanes rather than dense urban development.
The local economy remains largely agricultural, shaped by drainage schemes and waterways such as the nearby King's Sedgemoor Drain, and the surrounding wetlands and Bridgwater Bay make the area notable for birdlife and other wildlife. There is a modest historic core with older buildings and a village community that relies on nearby towns for many services, giving Huntspill a quiet, rural character with a strong sense of local identity.
