Upper Cotton Staffordshire Map

About Upper Cotton

Upper Cotton rests in the Staffordshire Moorlands, a quiet scattering of dwellings under a wide sky. It lies 6.4 km north-east of Cheadle (from Cheadle: bearing 42°T, OS grid SK 053 478), and is situated east-north-east of Whiston village. The landscape here breathes with a gentle, rolling aspect, the fields patched with the muted greens and browns of grazing land, hinting at the deep roots of agriculture that have shaped this place. A thin ribbon of stream, perhaps the Cotton Brook itself, murmurs its way through the lowlands, its presence a constant, understated companion to the scattered farmsteads. The air, when the wind blows from the west, carries the clean scent of damp earth and distant heather, a breath from the higher moors. The quietude of Upper Cotton is not an emptiness, but a fullness of space, where the eye can travel unhindered across the land.
