About

The area is characterised by a mix of older stone-built properties and more recent residential developments, set within a landscape that transitions from urban to rural. The ward includes areas of open grassland and playing fields, with views towards the chalk downland of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that rises to the south.

A notable local landmark is the former RAF Chiseldon camp site, with its history now absorbed into the residential fabric.
