High Barton is one of a handful of properties situated about 250 yards north east of the main part of the village and is approached via a narrow country lane that sees minimal traffic. The driveway entrance to the house opens onto a gravel parking area with space for about four cars. The parking area is enclosed by tall stone walls and hedging that provide privacy from the two nearest neighbours. In one corner is an open porch over the house's back door that doubles as a log store. A path leads round one side of the house to the low-walled rear garden. Passing a paved seating area beside a timber-framed greenhouse, the garden extends along the full length of the house. Its walls are only waist high, which allow uninterrupted and far-reaching views of the surrounding countryside. The garden is level and incorporates a rectangular lawn fringed by narrow borders filled with roses and herbaceous perennials and a further paved seating area at the opposite end of the garden. With the rear, south-facing wall of the house draped with a rich variety of climbing roses and a backdrop of gorgeous, unspoilt countryside, the garden provides a wonderful entertainment space in fine weather.
Trent is a small, pretty village set amidst unspoilt countryside. Much of the village and the 2,100 acres of rolling farmland surrounding it are protected by the Ernest Cook Trust. The village is well provided for with a primary school and pub and is conveniently located for nearby Sherborne and Yeovil. There are good, local transport links with regular rail services from Sherborne to Waterloo (75 minutes) and from Castle Cary to Paddington (90 minutes). Bristol, Bournemouth and Exeter airports are all about an hour's drive away. The local area also offers a wide choice of excellent schools from both the state and independent sectors.

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
