Through the Wall
This wall is between Chilton House and the parish church.
Somebody must have been too tall for the old doorway at some time.

Chilton House
This is now a residential care home, and probably a rather exclusive one with residential fees from £225 per night and £950 per week. The main building in an 18th century manor house.

House in Chilton
This Georgian house may have been associated with Chilton House, in the gate to our left. It will have a lovely view from the rear, over Chilton Lake and rolling countryside.

Unusual Pond, Chilton House
Just the place for an ornamental pond, in front of the house overlooking a valley.
But the twin slipways suggest there was some other purpose in designing it this way.
Pure guesswork here, but might it have been for washing animals? You could ride your horse round this to get the mud off his feet after a day in the fields.
Or perhaps His Lordship liked to come out of his house and go for a paddle.

Pond at Chilton House
The pond has an unusual shape. It is clearly artificial but also seems to have a slipway in and a deliberate half-moon shape. Can anyone shed any light on the reason?

St Mary's church, Chilton
There are C12 remains in the nave. The chancel and south transept are C13, the tower (which is unusually to the north of the building) is C14. Further modifications were made in C15 and C16.
