Champs Chapel, built in 1453 for Carthusian monks, contains a selection of East Hendred Heritage Trust’s collection of village artefacts, pictures, documents, books and photographs most of which can be viewed on computer if not on display. Separately housed is the 19th century village fire engine.

You must appreciate the fact that our Museum is very small and is run purely by volunteers. So despite all our efforts to provide the best and entertaining service, we can not compete with larger and more commercial establishments. But if you’d bear with us, we’ll make it worthwhile.
