Chinnor Oxfordshire Map

About Chinnor

Chinnor rests against the flank of the Chiltern Hills, its buildings catching the soft, diffused light that often filters through the English sky. It lies 5.6 km west-south-west of Princes Risborough (from Princes Risborough: bearing 244°T, OS grid SP 757 009), and is situated south-south-west of Henton village. The ancient parish church of St. Andrew, with its sturdy tower, stands as a quiet sentinel over the community, its stonework worn smooth by centuries of wind and rain, a silent witness to the passing generations. Fields of barley, when ripe, shimmer with a golden haze that can transform the familiar landscape into something akin to a painted dreamscape. The very air in Chinnor seems to hold a certain stillness, broken only by the distant call of a curlew or the murmur of conversation from the village inn. This is a place where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the pace of life, a subtle echo of an older, more elemental existence.
