Aylesbury Vale Village Pub competition 2009
Have you nominated The Bell for an award in this competition? Forms are available in The Bell.
Chearsley is fortunate to still have a pub as an important part of our amenities, whether you use it regularly or just now and again. We often read in the press of how many pubs are closing. So why not use this competition as a way of supporting The Bell? Come and have a meal or just a drink, pick up a form and send it off.

Fenella of School Lane was recently interviewed on BBC Oxford, talking about her Great Uncle Charles Phipps, who died in the Battle of Fromelles during the First World War in 1916. He was 20 and died alongside many other members of the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry.

Chearsley was represented by Anna Taylor of Watts Green, who took part in the London Marathon last week, completing it in a very good time. Congratulations to Anna.
