Calton Staffordshire Map

About Calton

Calton, a quiet hamlet in the Staffordshire Moorlands, enjoys a position that feels both remote and connected to the wider world. It lies 8.1 km west-north-west of Ashbourne (from Ashbourne: bearing 295°T, OS grid SK 107 500), and is situated east of Waterhouses village. The land here rolls gently, a soft green quilt stitched with hedgerows and ancient dry-stone walls, and often the sky seems unusually vast, stretching from horizon to horizon with a clarity that can catch the breath. A sense of enduring peace pervades Calton, as if the centuries have smoothed its edges like pebbles in a stream, leaving behind a simple, unhurried grace. The stone of its few dwellings, weathered by countless seasons, possesses a warm, earthy hue that seems to absorb the very light of the Staffordshire sky.
