Heyford Houses
The houses in this village, situated on the edge of the Cotswold Hills are nearly all built of stone. There is a well matched blend of Cotswold limestone and some Hornton stone which reflects a golden hue and is quarried near Banbury. Many of the houses and cottages are thatched. It is not often that a thatcher cannot be found at work in the village.I am exhibiting just a very small selection, almost at random, of my image bank which includes the majority of the diverse village stock. Interestingly and perhaps unusually no two stone houses are alike.

Church cottage

This delightful cottage is tucked away opposite the church. With the garden in full summer bloom it seems even more remote. One of the beauties of this village is that there is always a surprise around every corner.
