Charndon Parish Council welcomes you to the official website for the Parish of Charndon. Located some seven miles from the county town of Buckingham, we are a small rural community comprising of the villages of Charndon and 'Old' Calvert. This website is brought to you by your Parish Council. Charndon - means 'cairn hill', cairn being a Celtic word for a ceremonial hill or pile of stones. The hamlet was recorded in the Doomsday Book in 1086 as Credendone. As a community website, it is intended to be informative and to serve as a focal point for community matters. Your views and comments are important to us. This website has been implemented containing basic information readily available at the time of publication. The site will continue to be improved and developed, although the constantly changing nature of our villages means that, at the moment, the launch or development of some pages must wait. It also means that not all information is immediately available. The content for some sections of this site will take time to source, compile and publish. 
The authors invite members of the community to contribute to the site, especially for the history and news sections. New content is always welcome so please use the post box icon above to email us.
