Cheddington won Buckinghamshire Village of the Year 2005 and also East of England Village of the Year 2006 (young persons category). Mentioned in the doomsday survey 1066, the village history is based around agriculture. Cheddington is also infamously remembered as the scene of the Great Train Robbery in 1963.
