Shops, Middle Way, Chinnor
At a guess these were intended as local shops when the surrounding housing was built.
They are now trading as businesses with a wider catchment, Bathroom Sales, Costume Hire and Plumbing Supplies.

Hailey Croft, Oakley, Chinnor
On a 1940s map there is no housing in this area, and Oakley was a small village separate from Chinnor. It is now part of a much expanded small town of Chinnor.

Former steam mill, Chinnor
The post mill at Chinnor was later supplemented by a steam mill. The engine and boiler were in the area behind the brick wall while the mill was the white building by the road. The mill house is to the left. The post mill has been relocated across the road and is being rebuilt while the steam mill is now a dwelling. The steam mill is believed to date from c1887 and by 1929 was using an oil engine. I have yet to discover when it went out of production.

Chinnor Post Mill
A labour of love for the enthusiasts who have reconstructed the mill from a pile of jumbled timber over the last three decades. Although the sails are up and can be rotated by hand there is still a lot to be done before the stones can be operated. The latest works have seen a foundation dug for the fan tail roller. The mill was open for National Mills Weekend 2017.
