Little Upton in the hamlet of Upton
The house shown in the other photograph in this grid square is now undergoing a refit, with a number of contractors vehicles on site. This small hamlet is just a stone's throw from the village of Upton Cross, the other houses seem to be fairly modern with the exception of Upton Manor and Upton Farm. The proliferation of hamlets in Cornwall is a result of a historical preference for small groups of dwellings rather than expanding villages, and Cornwall's old local council policy of establishing 'Rural Gaps'.

The Caradon Inn
I suppose that if you have to look for a picture postcard country pub then this might be a candidate, although it could be mistaken for a chelsea tractor garage!

Sunday School, Upton Cross
The building dates from 1887, "constructed from the same stone as the school
and church with a similar pitched slate roof and lancet widows" http://www.historic-cornwall.org.uk/cisi/upton_cross/CISI_Upton_Cross_report.pdf - I think they mean windows. It is now used as the CrossLink Centre. http://www.achurchnearyou.com/upton-cross-st-paul/ .
