    5 Quirky Facts About Alderbury & Whaddon

    1. Violet Pinckney
      Born in Alderbury, Violet Millicent Pinckney was an English tennis player who won the German Championships in 1903 before going on to reach the quarter finals of Wimbledon. Alderbury still has a tennis court so who knows, maybe the village will yet produce a Wimbledon champ?!?
    2. William Morris
      St Mary’s Church in Whaddon, built in 1857 (on the site of an older church), boasts a window designed by the world renowned designer William Morris. Morris is considered to be one of the most influential cultural figures of his age and his work is still much revered and sought-after.
    3. 2 for 1
      There are a number of villages named ‘Whaddon’ in England, including one in Buckinghamshire. There is even another Whaddon in Wiltshire, close to Hilperton, Trowbridge.
    4. Doomed
      Size isn’t everything. In fact, despite their size, London, Bristol and Liverpool are among the cities not to be featured in the Domesday Book of 1086. Alderbury was significant enough to have had a listing. The book was created by William the Conqueror as a means to value parishes for tax purposes. At the time Alderbury consisted of just 13 households, the 2011 census gives the population as 2,223.
    5. White House
      Alderbury House is a Grade II listed building designed by Benjamin Henry Latrobe who went on to work on the White House (yes, the big one in Washington!).
