Cornworthy breathes through the damp, green hollows of the South Hams, where the air holds a permanent, cool weight of river mist. It lies 3.3 miles south-south-east of Totnes (from Totnes: bearing 152°T, OS grid SX 826 556), and is situated east-south-east of Tuckenhay village. The ruins of Cornworthy Priory remain as a hushed, weathered skeleton against the landscape, marking the site where Augustinian canonesses once moved in the long shadows of the medieval era. Beyond these stone fragments, Corkscrew Hill rises in a sharp, sudden defiance of the surrounding lowlands, catching the pale, slanted light of a Devon afternoon. Fields of heavy, iron-rich earth slope toward the hidden veins of water that feed the nearby estuaries. The quietude of Cornworthy is broken only by the sharp call of buzzards circling over the ancient, hedge-bound lanes. Each gatepost and crooked wall reflects the endurance of a place that long ago turned its back on the noise of the wider world. Here, the slow, rhythmic cycle of the seasons dictates the pace of life more surely than any clock.
