Welcome to the Baydon Village Website

The peaceful village of Baydon is found on the old Roman Road of Ermin Street that dips and sweeps through undulating countryside, rising to over 760 feet above sea level at Baydon. The total population of Baydon is approximately 560, including those from outlying farms, and encompasses about 280 houses

St Nicholas Church is located in the centre of the village, and nearby are the village pub (The Red Lion), and the village shop / post office (Baydon Village Stores). The primary school (Baydon St. Nicholas C. of E. School) is situated next to the church and is very well regarded, attracting children from the surrounding villages

Jo Cooling - Raising Money for the Alzheimer's Society 

Update on Jo Cooling's Peruvian Trek:
Sadly I have had to postpone my trek in Peru until September 2019. A combination of things has led to this. I developed a Morton's neuroma (pinched nerve) in my foot and had to take time off training. Just as I was ready to restart training Niall came off his bike and although he is now mending well his injuries were too severe for me to trek train and look after him and our business. It was a very hard decision to have to make as I was so focused on getting there and have worked hard to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society this year. Thank you again to everyone who has donated to the Alzheimer Society so far. The sponsorship will be carried over to next year's trek, Fund raising continues and the just giving page will remain open:
