Otterham, Cornwall Weather
About Otterham, Cornwall
Otterham commands a high, exposed ridge where the Atlantic winds scour the hedgerows and clarify the quality of the light. It lies 5.7 miles north-east of Camelford (from Camelford: bearing 39°T, OS grid SX 166 907), and is situated south-east of Marshgate village. The landscape here is defined by a rigorous, hard-won agriculture that yields to the wilder, boggy ground of the nearby Ottery Valley SSSI. Below the surface of these fields, the earth retains the secrets of ancient inhabitants, evidenced by the Two Bowl Barrows 595M North West Of Belah Park Farm which mark the horizon with a quiet, earthen permanence. Otterham possesses a stark, unadorned beauty, where the sky seems larger and more insistent than in the sheltered lowlands. Stone walls, built with a stubborn, interlocking logic, divide the pastures into a patchwork that responds to the steep contours of the terrain. The air carries a sharp, saline tang, a reminder that the rugged coast remains a restless presence just beyond the western hills. Life in Otterham follows the slow, seasonal pulse of the surrounding moorland, indifferent to the frantic pace of the modern world.
