Paulton is a large Somerset village located in the Somer Valley, roughly 10 miles south-west of Bath and close to Midsomer Norton. Paulton is home to around 5,000 people, and it has old farming roots but really grew with the Somerset Coalfield, when nearby pits provided work and shaped village life through the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. Mining has long gone now, yet that industrial past still forms an important part of the area's character. Paulton doesn't have a railway station, therefore buses and roads such as the A37 and nearby A362 provide the main links towards Bath, Bristol, Wells and surrounding communities. The village of course has shops, pubs, schools, churches, a medical centre, sports clubs and Paulton Hospital, covering the everyday basics pretty well. Greyfield Wood and the surrounding countryside are handy for walks, while Radstock Museum explores the area's mining story. National Trust attractions within reach include Prior Park Landscape Garden, Dyrham Park and Stourhead, with English Heritage's Stoney Littleton Long Barrow and Farleigh Hungerford Castle offering further historic days out.
