About

Chinnor ward encompasses the village of Chinnor and its surrounding rural area in the Chiltern Hills. The settlement is linear, following the B4009 road along the foot of the escarpment. Land use is mixed, with residential streets, a central conservation area, and significant areas of farmland. The landscape is defined by the chalk hills, with the Ridgeway national trail passing along the top of the escarpment above the village.

The local economy has historically been connected to quarrying and cement production, with a large working plant visible to the east. The Princes Risborough to Chinnor heritage railway operates steam and diesel services from the station. The ward includes the hamlet of Oakley and areas of woodland and chalk grassland, which form part of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
