Update on the Culworth Road closure, Chipping Warden

Update on the Culworth Road closure, Chipping Warden Message from EKFB working on behalf of HS2 As you may be aware, we have Culworth Road in Chipping Warden closed at the moment, which was due to re-open on 31 March. We had intended to get the road open before the Easter weekend, but this has not been possible. We require the road to remain closed for vehicles, until the middle / end of next week. Apologies for this. We have, however, opened part of our closure to allow for pedestrian access. Walkers will find that the barriers have been repositioned slightly, to allow pedestrians through, but keep the main highway blocked for vehicle traffic. Please take care when walking along

Wardington video

For those who haven't yet seen "The Cotswold Explorer" video featuring Wardington and Williamscot, as well as Cropredy and beyond, you can see it by clicking to play below. With just a couple of factual inaccuracies (maybe they looked up The Plough in Warmington?), it's a very informative tour around our home, including a reminder of how very old the church is.
