The tap on the outside wall here doesn’t work (April 2025)

Both John Steinbeck & Jimmy Dean would be impressed!

This stone bridge spans over the famous Oxford Canal and offers up some wonderful views down the waterway. You may be lucky enough to spot some narrow canal boats as you pass by.

Very good coffee and warm sausage rolls

Chipping Warden is a typically pretty village for the area. Smaller than some of its more famous neighbours but no less picturesque. A good spot to rest and seek refreshment.

Chipping Warden is a Northamptonshire village with a rich history. On the River Cherwell, to the east, are the remains of a Roman villa, while just to the south of the village is an Iron Age hillfort, Arbury Banks. The village sits on the Jurassic Way long-distance trail. Walkers in need of a pitstop will be delighted that there are two pubs: the Griffin and the Rose and Crown.

[The canal going through Banbury is part of] the Oxford Canal, a 78-mile (126 km) narrow canal in central England linking Oxford with Bedworth (between Coventry and Nuneaton on the Coventry Canal) via Banbury and Rugby. Completed in 1790, it connects to the River Thames at Oxford and is integrated with the Grand Union Canal [...]. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_Canal

This building, designed by Edward George Bruton in the Gothic Revival style and built by Chesterman Brothers of Abingdon, was completed in October 1854 and is the fourth town hall building built in Banbury town from 1590 onwards. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage with three bays facing the junction of the High Street and Market Place; the central section, which projected forward, featured an arched doorway on the ground floor and a balcony with an ogee headed window on the first floor. A clock tower and spire were added in 1860. The principal room was an assembly hall on the first floor. The building was extended to the south west to create a council chamber in 1891. The town hall was the headquarters of Banbury Borough Council until the council moved its administration to the mechanics' institute in Marlborough Road in 1930.
