Shipton Buckinghamshire Map

About Shipton

Shipton, a quiet collection of dwellings, breathes the air of Buckinghamshire. It lies 0.7 km east-south-east of Winslow (from Winslow: bearing 107°T, OS grid SP 776 273). The land around Shipton slopes gently, a subtle rise towards the horizons, where the sky often holds a soft, diffused light, particularly in the late afternoon. Fields of barley and wheat, the colour of pale gold in summer, stretch out, their boundaries marked by hedgerows that are not so much sculpted as allowed to grow, a wilder kind of green. The lanes that thread through Shipton are narrow, often edged with the cool, damp scent of earth and the occasional flash of a robin's breast. There is a sense of enduring quiet here, a place where the loudest sounds might be the distant lowing of cattle or the rustle of wind through mature oak trees.
