Welcome to Cheddington

Cheddington is a small village located in the county of Buckinghamshire, England. It is situated on the A418 road, which connects Aylesbury and Leighton Buzzard. The village has a population of around 1,000 people and is surrounded by beautiful countryside, making it a popular destination for walkers and cyclists.

One of the main attractions in Cheddington is the Grand Union Canal, which runs through the village. The canal was built in the late 18th century and played an important role in the transportation of goods between London and Birmingham. Today, the canal is used mainly for leisure purposes, with many people enjoying boating, fishing, and walking along its banks. The canal also has a number of historic features, including locks, bridges, and aqueducts.

Cheddington has a rich history, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Bronze Age. The village was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 and has been inhabited ever since. Over the years, Cheddington has been home to a number of notable figures, including the poet John Milton, who lived in the village for a short time in the 17th century. Today, Cheddington is a thriving community with a range of amenities, including a village hall, a primary school, and several shops and pubs.
