The village of Trull is located two miles South of Taunton, the county town of Somerset. It is in a picturesque setting close to open farmland, with views of the nearby Blackdown Hills (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). Trull’s name is likely to come from the Old English word “Trendle” meaning a ring or circle.
