West Camel is a small village and parish in south Somerset, seven miles from the towns of Sherborne and Yeovil, with a population of about 450. The parish includes the hamlet of Urgashay.
This is a pleasant village, straddling the river Cam, and with an attractive Village Green, an old Tythe Barn and an historic Parish Church. Over the years, villagers have raised a large amount of money for local projects, including a playing field with children’s play equipment and a multi-purpose sports court. The most ambitious project was the Davis Hall, an excellent facility opened in 2001, where most village activities now take place.
