Upleward is built on a warft which has been inhabited since at least the Early Middle Ages.[1] The village center consists of traditional single-family houses, built around the Gothic church from the 14th century.[2] The church's narrow pointed arches are typical of the time.[3]
In 2004, an iron dagger inscribed with the words "ANNA" and "HANA" was discovered in Upleward, dating back to 1450.[4]
