Chipping Warden is a small village and civil parish in West Northamptonshire, lying close to the county boundary with Oxfordshire. Set in rolling countryside, the village's "Chipping" prefix hints at its medieval market origins, and it sits within reasonable travelling distance of larger towns such as Banbury and Northampton.
There is a strong rural community feel, with a compact historic core, a parish church with long roots and the usual local institutions such as a village hall and community groups. The local economy remains largely agricultural, supplemented by commuters to nearby towns, and the surrounding lanes and footpaths make it a quiet base popular with walkers and anyone after a traditional Northamptonshire village atmosphere.
