About

Cholsey ward encompasses the village of Cholsey and its surrounding rural landscape in South Oxfordshire. The area is defined by the River Thames to the east and farmland to the west. The settlement itself is linear, stretching along the main road, with housing developments extending into older agricultural land. The ward includes the hamlet of Winterbrook, located directly on the river. Local infrastructure includes a railway station providing links to Reading and London.

The area has strong transport connections due to the mainline railway and the A329 road. A notable feature is the presence of the Cholsey and Wallingford Railway, a preserved heritage line operating steam and diesel trains on a short route. Large areas are dedicated to arable farming, with fields bordering the village edges. The community supports several shops, pubs, and a primary school, serving the local residential population.
