About Othery
Othery is a historic parish and village in Somerset, established in 1515, located 7 miles east of Bridgwater and 4 miles north-west of Langport. Nestled on a detached section of Sowy island within the Somerset Levels, it spans 553 hectares following a 1985 boundary adjustment with Burrowbridge. The area's borders, defined by intricate ditches and walls, were developed from the 13th century onward to manage the waters of the River Cary and River Parrett, crucial for planning considerations in this flood-prone region. The settlement has a population of approximately 687 (2021 estimate). It sits within the Sedgemoor district.
There are currently no active flood warnings for the Othery area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.
In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Othery a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
