Cheddington
Cheddington is situated 10 miles to the east of Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire.
To the south west, West End Hill is designated as a local landscape area.
Saint Giles Church dates back to 1190 but most of the present building dates
from the 14th and 15th centuries. The tower contains six bells, the earliest
dating from 1593. The Methodist Church is situated at the Green.
The village has two excellent public houses, the Three Horseshoes, providing
a traditional atmosphere with snacks served at lunchtime, and the Old Swan,
a traditional thatched pub and restaurant.
A good network of footpaths and bridleways serve the village including two
circular walks and the Two Ridges Link which can be accessed at the railway
station.
Cheddington has a railway station with regular trains to London Euston
