High above the churning currents of the North Devon coast, the quiet lanes of Cheriton carve a path through a landscape defined by sharp inclines and sudden, expansive horizons. It lies 1.9 miles south-south-east of Lynton (from Lynton: bearing 148°T, OS grid SS 735 466), and is situated east-south-east of Barbrook village. This rugged terrain falls entirely within the protected boundaries of Exmoor National Park, where the sky feels heavy with the weight of Atlantic clouds. To the northwest, the land dips into the verdant hollow of Small Combe, a place where the light catches the dew long after the sun has cleared the ridge. A short walk to the south-south-west reveals the earthworks of Roborough Castle, an Iron Age presence that keeps a silent, watchful eye over the surrounding moorland. Cheriton occupies a space where the ancient history of the region is written into the very contours of the soil. The air here holds a crisp, singular clarity, untainted by the clamour of the busier lowlands. Every dry stone wall and gnarled hedge serves as a marker of a life lived in accordance with the shifting, temperamental seasons of the high country.
