Overley Staffordshire Map

About Overley

Overley, a quiet hamlet, rests within the rolling fields of Staffordshire. It lies 7.5 km north-east of Lichfield (from Lichfield: bearing 34°T, OS grid SK 159 157), and is situated west-north-west of Alrewas village. The light here often falls with a soft, diffused quality, catching the subtle greens of hedgerows and the muted browns of the ploughed earth. Ancient oaks, their branches gnarled like the hands of old storytellers, stand as silent witnesses to the passage of seasons and generations across the landscape. A sense of enduring quietude pervades Overley, a stillness that allows the distant bleating of sheep or the rustle of leaves to carry with surprising clarity. The very air seems to hold the scent of damp soil and wild grasses, a perfume of the land itself.
