St Mary the Virgin Church, East Claydon
This is the parish church of East Claydon which is on top of Sion Hill on the eastern edge of the village at a height of 120m. The earliest part of the church at the beginning of the 13th century was an aisle-less nave and chancel, and the first rector was recorded as Richard Hanley in 1218. The tower was added in the late 15th or early 16th century. The church is said to have been damaged by Cromwell's men in the Civil War, and was only completely restored by Sir Gilbert Scott in 1871. In 1976 the parishes of East, Middle and Steeple Claydon were united, each with its own parish church, to become the Parish of the Claydons. The name Claydon derives from the old english clægig + dun and means 'clayey hill', and Claindone is the name given for Claydon in the Domesday Book in 1086.

Whitehouse Farm, East Claydon
Whitehouse Farm is named on the OS 1:25,000 map. Over the doorway, there is a stone inscription with interwoven letters and the date 1894, though the building, and the wall, is obviously much older.
