Othery is a small rural parish on the southern edge of the Somerset Levels in Somerset, England. The village sits on a slight rise above the surrounding wetlands, and its medieval church, set prominently on that higher ground, is a local landmark reflecting centuries of history tied to drainage, flood management and the changing landscape of the Levels.
Life in Othery remains largely agricultural, with dairy and arable farms and a strong sense of community; many residents also commute to nearby towns such as Glastonbury and Bridgwater. The surrounding wetland habitats attract rich birdlife and give the area a distinctive mix of historic charm and natural interest.
