LOCATION


Quainton takes its name from the Old English words Cwen + Tun and means ?The Queens Farmstead or Estate? prominent on the skyline is the 14th century church which is exceptionally rich in large late 17th and 18th century monuments. The centre point of Quainton is the picturesque village green which looks up towards the 1830 windmill. In the middle of the green is a fourteenth century preaching cross and in a picture from the late 1800?s the old whipping post is visible where miscreants were tied and flogged! Until the outbreak of Dutch Elm disease the village was embosomed by trees. Quainton now has two public houses, motor repairs, a butchers shop and a general store.


The surrounding market towns and villages provide a wealth of historical and interesting places to visit including Waddesdon Manor, Claydon House and Quainton Steam Railway. Extensive shopping facilities are situated at Bicester Village Retail Outlet, the refurbished Friar?s Square Centre in Aylesbury, Milton Keynes and Oxford.
