Overton, a quiet Lancashire parish, breathes a gentle air of settled permanence. It lies 4.2 km south-south-east of Heysham (from Heysham: bearing 151°T, OS grid SD 437 580), and is situated east-south-east of Middleton village. The land here, a soft green quilt stitched with hedgerows, slopes with a subtle grace towards the distant coast, catching the wide, often luminous skies of the North West. Within Overton's embrace, the ancient parish church, St Helen's, stands as a quiet sentinel, its stone weathered by centuries of wind and rain, a humble testament to the enduring faith of its people. Life in Overton has long been tied to the soil, a rhythm set by the turning seasons and the quiet industry of farming that still whispers through its fields.
