Berry Close is a 10 acre open space in the middle of Chacombe, a few miles from Banbury. The land was generously donated to the village as an amenity in the will of Mrs Eileen Bennett, in memory of her late husband, Tim. 

The land is owned by Chacombe Parish Council, but managed by a Trust, the Berry Close Charitable Trust. All residents of Chacombe are welcome to join the Trust as Friends. The Trust is administered by a committee of Trustees who are appointed by the membership.

So many people in the village have offered to support us with sourcing new books for our library - we are so grateful, here at Chacombe School. If you would like to buy a book for the school library, we have set up an account on the Love Reading 4kids website. We have put together a list of fiction and nonfiction books we would love to have in school so you can choose a book and purchase online using the link below. Thank you for supporting our children.

Chacombe were a great audience for our evening of entertainment with Magician and Ventriloquist, David Tomkins, who kept us all laughing at his antics with his puppets and guessing just how he pulled off the magic tricks. David wanted to say that he and his wife loved the vibe of the evening and the village, the fun he could have with the audience who were great sports and the how many villagers stopped to chat to them after the show making them feel so welcome.
