Clophill

Clophill gets its name from the word Clopelle meaning "tree- stump hill" and is first mentioned in the Domesday book when it belonged to a group of two or three hamlets – Beadlow, Cainhoe and possibly Moddry. Since that time the village has steadily grown from 706 in 1801 to 1220 by 1871. Today Clophill is a vibrant village with a number of pubs and restaurants along with a post office/general store, and a primary school.
