When you want to plan a trip to this lovely place in South Gloucestershire, here's what you need to know:

History

With “Chipping” in it's name, it is implied that this place was once an important market centre during the medieval times. And it was a good location for one too: it's at the crossroads on the  main route between Bristol, Oxford and London.

Attractions

In it's long market square – called Broad Street – you'll find a range of houses from different periods. The most dominant structures, however, are the 17th-century Cotswold stone buildings and the Georgian structures made of yellow brick. Most of these buildings are now shops but the place still gives a lively country atmosphere.

The village of Old Sodbury is located high on the Cotswold escarpment to the east of Chipping Sodbury. Here, you can get views from the churchyard over the Severn plain and into Bristol. The church at Old Sodbury is called St John the Baptist Church.

Little Sodbury is also located nearby, and this is where you'll find a huge Iron Age hill fort above a 15th-century manor house. The manor house features an interesting great hall which hosted Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn as well as William Tyndale. A church is found here as well and it's called St Adeline's Church which is the only one in England to be dedicated to the saint.

Also located nearby is the village of Great Badminton which is about six miles east. This village is situated in one of the most famous estates in Britain, the Duke of Beaufort's estate. One of the attractions in this place is the Hawkesbury Monument which commemorates Lord Edward Somerset who served in the Battle of Waterloo.
