Sunningwell

Sunningwell

Sunningwell is a village and civil parish in Oxfordshire (previously Berkshire) in England, with a population of about 200 people.

The village church, St Leonard's, in large part dates from the 15th century, although parts are earlier.

Sunningwell is notable for the successful campaign run by parishioners against the plans to develop green belt land surrounding the village and elsewhere in Oxfordshire.

The Flowing Well Public House with beer garden is a well known destination for walkers.
