Chaddleworth

The village of Chaddleworth lies below the southern slopes of the Berkshire Downs, just east of the A338 road, which runs between Hungerford and Wantage to form the western parish boundary.The south-east corner of the village is called Nodmore and the hamlet of Southend sits only a mile to the north-east.The current owner is Mrs Kirsten Lloyd, eldest daughter of the late Lord Lieutenant of Berkshire, Sir Philip Lavallin Wroughton.[2] Chaddleworth has a local microbrewery, called the Indigenous Brewery, located at Peacock Cottage on Main Street.[4] Chaddleworth before the Law of Property Act 1925 had tenants who held land by copyhold and enjoyed an unusual legal practice associated with widows' rights known as Free Bench.
