Information About

Upton Magna




There is a pub, the Corbet Arms , a church called St. Lucia's and a primary school of the same name as the church. A recent addition to the village is the Upton Magna business park, which contains a shop/cafe and office space for small businesses.

Nearby are the villages of Uffington (which also has a Corbet Arms pub), Rodington , Withington and the wooded Haughmond Hill .

Upton Magna is also notable for containing the oldest cottage (that still stands to this day) in Britain and possibly Europe - Cruck Cottage - which is a thatch-roofed, timber framed cottage located near the church. Tests on the timber in the cottage showed it to come from 1269.
