About Bere Alston

Bere Alston, a West Devon village, commands a presence where the land begins to fold towards the Tamar. It lies 8.1 km north-north-east of Saltash (from Saltash: bearing 11°T, OS grid SX 447 667), and is situated south-east of Calstock village. The ancient mining heritage of Bere Alston still whispers in the contours of the surrounding hills, a subtle reminder of the industry that once shaped its fortunes. Sunlight, when it breaks through the Devon clouds, often falls in broad, golden swathes across the fields, illuminating the green, a place where the village’s pulse might be felt most keenly on market days. The very air here seems to carry a certain quietude, a stillness that allows the distant cry of gulls from the estuary to drift inland. Bere Alston’s stone buildings, weathered by generations of coastal winds, stand as silent witnesses to its enduring story.
