About Upton Cross

Upton Cross breathes a quiet stillness, a place where the hum of the distant road fades into the rustle of hedgerows. It lies 7.8 km west-north-west of Callington (from Callington: bearing 287°T, OS grid SX 284 721), and is situated south-west of Rilla Mill village. The gentle slopes of the Cornish countryside around Upton Cross are often softened by a particular quality of light, a pearly sheen that seems to cling to the fields even on brighter days, hinting at the enduring agricultural heart of this locale. While not a bustling centre, Upton Cross possesses a subtle character, its scattered dwellings and the enduring presence of ancient stone walls speaking of lives lived with a measured cadence. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and, in season, the sweet perfume of wild gorse, a fragrance that seems to bind the landscape together.
