Butterton Staffordshire Map

About Butterton

Butterton rests in the heart of the Staffordshire Moorlands, a scatter of stone against the vast, open sky. It lies 8.9 km east of Leek (from Leek: bearing 90°T, OS grid SK 075 564), and is situated north-north-west of Grindon village. The air here carries the clean, bracing scent of heather and peat, a subtle perfume that clings to the very stones of the cottages. Sunlight, when it breaks through the often-brooding clouds, can illuminate the landscape with a startling, almost ethereal clarity, turning the rough wool of the surrounding sheep into a fleeting gleam of gold. The quietude of Butterton is profound, broken only by the bleating of sheep or the distant murmur of wind across the moorland.
