About Shipton-on-Cherwell

It lies 3.1 km north-north-west of Kidlington (from Kidlington: bearing 338°T, OS grid SP 479 167), and is situated north of Thrupp village. The River Cherwell, a silver ribbon, traces a gentle course nearby, its banks often softened by a mist that lends a pearly luminescence to the early morning light. Ancient hedgerows, thick with hawthorn and elder, stand as silent sentinels over fields that have yielded their bounty for generations.

A sense of enduring peace pervades Shipton-on-Cherwell, a place where the land itself seems to whisper tales of ages past.
