Ulpha Cumbria Map

About Ulpha

Ulpha dwells in a fold of the Duddon Valley, where the air itself seems to carry the faintest scent of damp earth and distant sheep. It lies 5.8 km north-north-west of Broughton in Furness (from Broughton in Furness: bearing 342°T, OS grid SD 196 930). The village’s scattered houses, their stone walls softened by lichen, give a sense of quiet endurance against the Cumbrian fells that rise with a steady, unhurried grace. Here, the River Duddon, a shy but persistent presence, murmurs its ancient song, its waters reflecting the ever-changing moods of the sky. The old Ulpha Church, a modest stone sentinel, stands as a quiet testament to generations who have walked this ground, their lives interwoven with the land’s own slow unfolding. A palpable stillness pervades Ulpha, broken only by the call of a curlew or the rustle of wind through bracken.
