Chieveley is a village and civil parish in West Berkshire, England, sitting a few miles north of Newbury on the fringe of the chalk downland of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It has a quietly rural feel with farms, a village green, a parish church and local amenities such as a primary school and a pub, and the surrounding landscape is popular for walking and riding.
Despite its rural character, Chieveley benefits from good road links - close to the M4 and the A34/A338 corridor - so many residents commute to centres like Reading, Oxford or London. The village has historic roots and a largely residential economy, combining traditional agriculture with modern commuter households while retaining a strong local community atmosphere.
