LOCATION
Brightwell cum Sotwell is a picturesque village, fortunate to be completely bypassed which means that the only traffic in the village is village traffic. At the heart of the village is the Red Lion pub which has been carefully restored after a near disastrous fire. Dotted along the narrow village streets are picturesque black and white thatched cottages. Brightwell and Sotwell were originally two separate villages, only combined into one since 1948. There are many houses still standing which date back to Tudor times, or even before.? There are also 2 churches within the village, the church in Brightwell is St Agatha which in some parts date back to the12th century, possibly on the site of a church mentioned here in the Domesday Book. The church in Sotwell is St James. This church has ancient origins, but was rebuilt in 1884 and included features of the original wattle and daub building, an example being the impressive open roof of oak timbers. Visitors from all over the world visit the village which was the home of the celebrated Bach Flower Remedies, Mount Vernon. Wild flowers grown in the garden of Mount Vernon were used to make the homeopathic treatments. Dr Edward Bach, the creator of the treatments, is buried in St James‘s churchyard.
Brightwell cum Sotwell lies just off the A4130 a couple of miles west of Wallingford, a well connected Town with many shops and good road access.
