About Upton

Upton, a hamlet in Nottinghamshire, offers a quiet contemplation of the East Midlands landscape. It lies 6.3 km south-east of Retford (from Retford: bearing 141°T, OS grid SK 746 763), and is situated north-north-east of Askham village. Here, the fields lie open to a sky that often stretches in shades of pale blue and soft grey, a canvas that subtly shifts with the passing hours. The land around Upton, gently falling away towards the Idle valley, has long been shaped by agriculture, the hedgerows a testament to generations of patient cultivation. The air itself seems to carry the scent of damp earth and ripening crops during the summer months, a quiet perfume of the season. Though small, Upton retains a sense of its own place, a modest mark upon the broad sweep of the Nottinghamshire countryside.
