Ugborough is a quiet rural parish in the South Hams district of Devon, England, sitting on high ground just north of Ivybridge. The landscape is gently rolling farmland with hedgerows and lanes, and the prominent Ugborough Beacon provides a local viewpoint with long views towards the edges of Dartmoor and the surrounding valleys.
Historically centred on a medieval parish church, the community today combines farming with a commuter population working in nearby Plymouth and beyond. The village and hamlets such as Bittaford retain a strong local life around the school, village hall, pub and occasional fetes and events, giving Ugborough a character that is distinctly rural yet well connected.
