Upper Hambleton, Rutland Weather
About Upper Hambleton, Rutland
Upper Hambleton commands a ridge of limestone that divides the vast, silver expanse of the reservoir from the rolling pastures of the East Midlands. It lies 2.6 miles east-south-east of Oakham (from Oakham: bearing 107°T, OS grid SK 900 075), and is situated east of Egleton village. The landscape here is defined by the expansive presence of Rutland Water, which mirrors the shifting moods of the sky and casts a cooling breath over the surrounding fields. Ancient hedgerows trace the boundaries of these slopes, where the wind often carries the damp, earthy scent of the nearby reservoir waters. To the northeast, the quiet reaches of Barnsdale Wood offer a dense contrast to the open, light-filled vistas that dominate the horizon. Sunlight strikes the stone walls of Upper Hambleton with a particular clarity, revealing the weathered textures of masonry that has held firm against the elements for generations. This elevation grants a vantage point where the transition from solid ground to the fluid, sprawling basin of the lake feels both sudden and absolute. The atmosphere remains quiet, defined more by the call of birds circling the water than by the intrusion of modern industry.
