Upper Morton Gloucestershire Map

About Upper Morton

Upper Morton lies a tranquil cluster of dwellings, its essence tied to the gentle contours of Gloucestershire. It lies 1.7 km north-east of Thornbury (from Thornbury: bearing 40°T, OS grid ST 647 915), and is situated south-east of Lower Morton village. The air here often carries the faint, sweet scent of damp earth and ripening hedgerows, a perfume woven from the surrounding fields that stretch out like a rumpled green quilt under the wide, ever-changing sky. Ancient dry-stone walls, their grey stones weathered to a soft mossy hue, delineate the boundaries of meadows where cattle graze with a quiet, bovine patience, their forms softened by the diffused light of the South West. The handful of cottages that comprise Upper Morton seem to have grown organically from the land, their brick and stone a natural extension of the soil, offering a sense of quiet permanence against the fleeting passage of seasons.
