Roger Sweet's Pictures of Chalgrove

The war memorial and The Green, Chalgrove

The B480 is an attractive alternative route between Oxford and Henly-on-Thames which passes through some lovely South Oxfordshire countryside and through many attractive villages. One of these villages is Chalgrove, except that the B480 actually bypasses the village which means that Chalgrove is pleasantly clear of through traffic! The original village spreads out along the High Street, with a pleasant mixture of old cottages and newer buildings, whilst the newer development is mainly in the roads on either side. In places away from the High Street there are still indications of the original village, especially near the church. A small brook runs along the High Street for the length of the village and forms an attractive feature, complete with ducks. Many of the properties along that side of the road have individual bridges across the brook for access. The brook is apparently man-made and was created in the 19th century, forming an artificial loop to the Chalgrove Brook.
