About Chimney

Chimney, a hamlet in West Oxfordshire, rests where the gentle slopes of the Cotswolds begin to yield to the broader Oxfordshire plain. It lies 8.7 km north-east of Faringdon (from Faringdon: bearing 53°T, OS grid SP 358 009), and is situated south-south-east of Cote village. The stone of its few dwellings, weathered by countless seasons, seems to absorb the pale, diffused light that often graces this part of England, giving the hamlet a quiet, enduring quality. A sense of deep, unhurried peace pervades the air, perhaps a legacy of its agricultural roots, where the land itself dictates the tempo of life. There is a stillness here, broken only by the distant bleating of sheep or the rustle of leaves, a natural quietude that settles upon the observer like a soft cloak. The very quietude of Chimney speaks of a place content in its own modest existence, a small corner of the English landscape that has simply been, and continues to be.
