Are you a badger? If badgers have developed the art of typing then maybe but sadly no we are not a badger. Are you local residents? Yes we are local residents living in the parish. Are you interested in local events? Our main objectives are to drink tea and eat good cake so if this is on offer then we will post your event. If however it is a no cake event then we will need some random convincing of its worth. Are you anti badgers? We don't meet many badgers or indeed people dressed as badgers so it's hard to answer this one. Can I post my own random photos on your page? We are delighted to welcome the local community to join us in posting their photos but anything rude will be studied carefully in a room with good lighting,shared with friends and not posted. What sort of things will you feature? Today we photographed a large pothole filled with water, it was the most uninteresting thing we saw what about you? Can I use your page to post my anger about something locally? Hmmm tricky really, this then turns the page into something with a point which would make our pointless endeavour rather fruitless. So no unless however it makes you feel better and by sharing you become a much happier person in the world, but we still might delete it. Can I share local gossip? Does it involve cake? See above. Are you a rich middle class person who has bought a house locally and used to be a city banker? Does this involve cake? Are you trying to make a point with this page? Absolutely not this is a completely pointless page apologies if this wasn't made clear. Are you pro the parish council? Do they have cake? We love the parish council and all that they do especially if they can get our broadband sorted without the use of crap satellite. Do you think they should build a Waitrose in Broomfield? Absolutely not we love our place just as it is. A corner shop wouldn't go a miss but driving 10 miles for a pint of milk is something we are used to.

They are at it again 🦡🦡🦡🦡

We’re back at it again with our pop-up pub this time we’re setting up in Ash Priors Village Hall TA4 3NF for one magical evening only. The Dryad Inn, our “pub of no fixed abode,” will be opening its doors (well, its fairy-lit village hall curtains!) to serve up good cheer, connection, and of course, a proper glass of Dryad Gin.

Expect laughter, storytelling, Shanty singing I’ll be behind the bar pouring our award-winning Centaur Oak and soaking up the joy that always seems to bloom when folks come together under one roof.

There will be Pizzas from 6pm. Over 18s only.

📍 Ash Priors Village Hall�📅 This Saturday�⏰ From 6pm�🪑 No need to book, just turn up and pull up a chair!

If you’ve not experienced The Dryad Inn yet — well, now’s your moment.

I’ve been asked very nicely to mention our nearest drinking hole is reopening ….

This Saturday 27th July we welcome back The Dryad Inn.

The Dryad Inn Pop Up Pub will be opening its doors once again at Broomfield Village Hall this Saturday on 27th July from 7.00pm.

They will be serving Dryad Gin cocktails alongside local Beer, Wine and Cider.

⁨Justine Desserts ⁩from Phoenix Kitchen will be providing some gorgeous Rustic Platters for you to enjoy just order on the night and the team from the Quantock Landscape Partnership Scheme will be hosting an interactive quiz based on classic tv game shows - with a Quantocks twist. Play your way through rounds that involve Catch Phrase, Blankety Blank, and Quantock Blockbusters…

Can you outwit your opponents as you play for bragging rights and untangle these wordplay trivia and picture rounds? Or you can just sit with friends and have a drink.

They may even have a sea shanty or two who knows what can emerge from such a fabulous night.

Over 18s only and parking behind the hall in the field. Cyclists welcome too.
Great way to meet your neighbours 🙌 and make some new friends. I’m going to check out the beer menu right now.
