Chedham's Yard - Derelict to Delightful
Heritage Open Day: Chedham's Yard will be telling the story of their restoration. This happened after they were lucky enough to win the third series of the BBC Restoration Village programme. The Yard was run continuously by the Chedham family from the 1820s through to the mid-1960s passing from father to son. Bill Chedham was the last of the family working at the Yard. Unlike many 18th / 19th century workshops this one housed both the wheelwrights who made the wooden wheels and the blacksmiths who made the metal work for the carts and made and fitted the metal tyres. Following the Parish Council’s purchase of the Yard from Bill Chedham in 2001 there were 11 years of hard work with archaeological surveys and planning, aided and assisted by Oxford University and other groups.
