Grindon rests within the embrace of Staffordshire Moorlands, a place where the land rises and falls with a quiet resilience. It lies 10.1 km east-south-east of Leek (from Leek: bearing 103°T, OS grid SK 085 542), and is situated west-south-west of Wetton village. The air here often carries the scent of damp earth and distant heather, a perfume of the high moorland that stretches towards the horizon. The cottages of Grindon, built from local stone, seem to emerge organically from the landscape, their walls softened by the gentle passage of time and the occasional lichen’s embrace. A sense of thoughtful quietude pervades Grindon, a feeling amplified by the broad, often luminous skies that preside over this part of England.
