LOCATION
Lying at the foot of the Berkshire Downlands, close to the River
Thames is the fair sized village of Cholsey situated approximately
2 miles southwest of Wallingford and surrounded by a pleasant rural
landscape designated an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The original settlement dates back to Saxon times but since 1950
the Village has grown considerably from its modest origins centred
around a small green known as The Forty and now boasts a good range
of shops and amenities including a Tesco Express supermarket with a
Post Office, a general stores and newsagents, a ladies and gents
hairdresser, a highly regarded butcher together with a wide range
of trade services including an electrical wholesaler and

number of play, nursery and toddler groups for young mums.
Importantly the Village has a mainline railway station with
fast, regular commuter services up to London Paddington in well
under the hour via Reading 20 minutes and up to Oxford. On the
Southern edge of the Village is an impressive Viaduct designed by
Isambard Kingdom Brunel in 1840. The late Poet Laureate John
Masefield lived at Lollingdon House located just to the West of the
Village. The Parish Church of St Marys, built in 1130, has some of
the finest Norman work in the district, including an unspoilt early
English chancel and in the church yard can be seen the grave of
Agatha Christie.
In addition to having well revered and outstanding local state
