Chadlington is a village and civil parish in the Evenlode Valley about 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, England. It comprises five "ends" - almost individual hamlets in their own right - called Green End, Brook End, West End, Mill End, and East End.

History

One of the earliest signs of human occupation in the parish is the Neolithic enclosure of Knollbury 1 mile (1.6 km) northwest of the village. It is a scheduled Ancient Monument.

Chadlington village existed by the time of Domesday Book and may be named after Saint Chad.

The Church of England parish church of Saint Nicholas was originally Norman, and the blocked head of a Norman window above the north arcade show that the building had a clerestorey in Norman times. In the 13th century north and south aisles were added in the Early English Gothic style, with four-bay arcades linking the aisles with the nave. Both aisles still retain some lancet windows from this period. The bell tower was built early in the 14th century in the Decorated Gothic style. A chapel was added at the east end of the north aisle. The chapel's east and north windows in the Transitional style between Decorated and Perpendicular Gothic date it to of the chancel about the middle of the 14th century. Later mediaeval additions in a pure Perpendicular Gothic style include the windows and north door in the north aisle, the present clerestorey and nave roof and the chancel arch. In 1870 the Gothic Revival architect Charles Buckeridge completely rebuilt the chancel. The tower has a peal of six bells. The church building has gargoyles and a Green Man. In 2001 the Church of England Benefice of Ascott-under-Wychwood, Chadlington and Spelsbury merged with that of Enstone and Heythrop to form the Chase Benefice. In 2008 the interior was of St. Nicholas' church was updated including a new stone floor and modern facilities to increase the functionality of the church for the community.

Chadlington is the birthplace of Sir Henry Rawlinson (1810-1895), and his brother Canon George Rawlinson (1812-1902). Ivan Cameron, son of Conservative Party Leader David Cameron is buried at Chadlington.

Amenities

Chadlington has a public house, the Tite Inn. The village shop was saved from closure in 2001 by a group of local residents. The Post Office closed and is now a coffee shop. Other businesses include a butcher, public house and furniture maker.

Chadlington Football Club plays in the Oxfordshire Senior Football League. Chadlington Cricket Club plays in the Oxfordshire Cricket Association League. Chadlington Sports and Social Club is the home ground of both clubs.

An annual fun run is held along Coldron Brook: The Great Brook Run. Proceeds of the race, which starts and ends at The Tite Inn, go to the local primary school and the constituency's MP David Cameron has taken part in the event.
