Oxfordshire · local guide
Chipping Norton is a Cotswold hill town, often called the highest town in Oxfordshire. It is a long way from a motorway, and the surrounding villages are scattered across open, rolling country.
Free collection
Start with the registration and the postcode where the car is parked.
The A44 crosses the town between Oxford and Evesham, the A361 runs north to Banbury and south to Burford, and the A3400 heads north towards Stratford. Bliss Tweed Mill, a landmark with a tall chimney, stands on the western edge of town.
In a rural area like this, an older car often keeps going far longer than it would in a city, until an MOT failure or a big repair finally ends it.
Chipping Norton’s height means snow and ice come sooner than in the valleys. If a collection is booked in bad weather, it may be rearranged for safety, so keep the car accessible and let the driver know about any steep slope on the drive.
Villages such as Hook Norton, Kingham and Enstone have narrow lanes and stone walls. Give the driver a landmark or the house name along with the postcode.
