LEWKNOR VILLAGE

Lewknor lies at the foot of the Chiltern Hills on the Oxfordshire Plain. The ancient Icknield way passes close-by as does the more recent M40 motorway with its massive cutting through the chalk of the Chilterns.

Lewknor village lies on the B4009 between Thame & Watlington

The village is small, but has a lovely old church and a small primary school. There is also an excellent public house serving fine food and ales.
