Blackshaw Moor occupies an exposed shoulder of the Staffordshire Moorlands, where the horizon pulls away to reveal the rugged spine of the Pennines. It lies 2.5 miles north-east of Leek (from Leek: bearing 34°T, OS grid SK 009 598), and is situated south-south-west of Upper Hulme village. The wind here carries a sharp, clean clarity that scours the gritstone walls and keeps the surrounding pastures a stubborn, resilient shade of emerald. To the west, the expanse of Tittesworth Water gathers the grey light of the sky into a wide, reflective basin, mirroring the slow procession of clouds. A short distance away, the quiet waters of the Blackshawmoor Reservoirs hold a stillness that contrasts with the restless motion of the high moorland air. The land at Blackshaw Moor has long been defined by this proximity to water and weather, shaping a life that remains tethered to the cycles of the seasons. Ancient, weathered stone boundaries lace the hillside, marking out a terrain that has remained largely untamed by the encroachment of industry. Here, the expansive sky dominates the view, casting long, shifting shadows across the heather and bracken that define the character of Blackshaw Moor.
