Okeltor, Cornwall Weather
About Okeltor, Cornwall
Okeltor commands a quiet prominence above the verdant, steep-sided banks of the River Tamar. It lies 4.3 miles south-south-west of Tavistock (from Tavistock: bearing 211°T, OS grid SX 443 686), and is situated east of Calstock village. This landscape flourishes within the protected embrace of the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where the sunlight catches the sharp incline of the valley walls. The earth here retains the skeletal remains of industry, most notably at the Okeltor 19th Century Arsenic, Copper and Tin Mine, where rusted legacy meets the encroaching wild. A short distance away, the Gawton Arsenic Mine and Flue stretches its stone masonry across the slope, a silent witness to the mineral wealth that once defined the horizon. Okeltor remains defined by these traces of subterranean toil, now softened by the persistent growth of ferns and gorse. The light in this corner of Cornwall possesses a peculiar clarity, illuminating the deep greens of the valley floor with a crisp, autumnal brilliance. Visitors often look toward the western heights to glimpse the distant, lingering charms of the Calstock View, which offers a broader perspective of the winding river. Through the changing seasons, Okeltor maintains a stoic grace, indifferent to the clamour of the modern world beyond its ridge.
