A guide to help you keep safe during flooding
Welcome to Pitcombe
Pitcombe is an English civil parish within the unitary authority of Somerset
Pitcombe is a small, attractive, rural parish embracing the three hamlets of Cole, Hadspen and Pitcombe. The parish lies between Castle Cary and Bruton and not far distant from Wincanton, featuring mainly farmland, orchards and open countryside. The parish is traversed by a number of footpaths as well as two rivers, the Brue and the Pitt. There are many historic buildings. The population of around 500 is divided between some 200 homes. There are two independent and one state secondary schools that serve some residents within their catchment but others rely on the outlying schools. Nearly half of the residents are economically active and approaching 20% are retired.
