Wells is the smallest city in England (population about 11,000), lying in beautiful countryside between the Somerset Levels and the Mendip Hills - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

This drive, flanked by shrubs and laurel hedges continues to No.3 which is at the end of the cul de sac.

The drive leads to a large parking area and a double garage.
