Reader Comments for Chessum Road
At the time of my childhood, it contained around 600 people. It has developed over the years from a small rural community where everyone knew each other to a much larger entity and changed in character with many establishing it as their home for commuter purposes. New estates are being established that could change its very nature as a village.
There was a desire to name some new roads after old village families to retain something of its history. My present-day family is scattered around the country now, but I wrote an article in the Langford Diary last year with reflections on the naming of the road and the process of change.
