Bothassets and the entire village are located within a combe.
Visibility from the combe in most directions apart from to the south is screened by wooded hills. The Site is entirely screened by Crook Hill. As such the Site is not consisted to be located within the setting of either the church or the Chantry and will have no effect on the significance of either building.
