Upton Pyne is a small unspoilt village of thatched and whitewashed cottages, on the north slope of the wooded clump of Pynes Hill. The churchyard looks north to the hills of Raddon, Cadbury, and Christ Cross, over a placid countryside of the fertile Red Sandstones. Cowley is a hamlet of Upton Pyne, chiefly notable for a fine bridge of classical design, built over the Creedy in 1813-14 by James Green, pupil of Rennie and surveyor to the county of Devon.
