The censuses indicate that Sarah died between 1891 and 1901 (her husband was shown as a widower in 1901). Her husband was at the same address in Over Stowey, in Bridgwater RD, in both census years so that would seem to be where she died, plus this Sarah Hill is the right age, only one other in Somerset in this period was, and she died in Wellington RD, some miles from Over Stowey.

John HAMBLING, b. Est 1654, d. Nov 1732, Berry Pomeroy, Devon, England
(Age ~ 78 years) (4 x Great Grandfather) 
Susanna FERRIS, b. Abt 1791, East Allington, Devon, England
, d. Yes, date unknown (Grandmother) 
Notes - Aged about 9 when her mother died, 15 when her father died, the last of her 8 siblings died when Sarah was just 21. And they hadn't died as so many then did as babies, but the youngest aged 2 and the others at ages ranging between 13 and 24, so old enough for Sarah to have had a real relationship with. Only her brother Charles had married, but Sarah's only sister-in-law (prior to her marriage) followed her husband to the grave 3 years after him, when Sarah was 23.
Her grandparents survived rather better, but 2 lived in London so it was unlikely she enjoyed a close relationship with them.
