Situation
At 700ft, Chipping Norton is the highest town in Oxfordshire and was once an important centre of the medieval wool trade (the word 'Chipping' means market). The elegant town centre bears testimony to its prosperous heritage. Nowadays, 'Chippy' as it is affectionately known, offers a diverse range of shops, ranging from proprietor owned specialist shops through to many of the most familiar High Street names. There are several places of worship, a cosmopolitan range of restaurants, schooling for all ages, as well as a fine sports centre that has an indoor pool. In addition to a hospital, Chipping Norton is proud of its little theatre that also doubles as a cinema. The M40 provides vehicular access to the Midlands from junction 11 (c.15 miles) and London from junction 10 (c.18 miles). Kingham Station is just over 5 miles away and provides a mainline service to Oxford in about 24 minutes and to London Paddington in about 93 minutes.
