Welcome to the Fernham village website
Fernham is a picturesque Oxfordshire village in the Vale of the White Horse with views of Uffington White Horse, the oldest hill-carved horse in the country.
The village has more than 80 houses, three farms, a church, a pub, two village greens, a village pump and a children's play park.
Though the village is small, the community spirit in Fernham is very strong and is often one of the reasons people choose to live here.
A small village with a special public space
Because Fernham is such a vibrant community, we have now converted St. John's Church to make it a more comfortable place for worship and to double as a village hall which can be hired for activities and events.
The conversion is now complete, and the roof has also been completely replaced. His Royal Highness The Earl of Wessex KG KCVO officially opened St. John's Church and Fernham Village Hall on Thursday, 24 June 2010.
Fernham's Fabulous fireworks
Fernham's Fabulous Fireworks take place in the village on Friday, 4 November. All welcome from 6pm; Children's (quiet) display at 6:30; main display at 7:00pm. Family ticket (2 adults/2 children) £10, Adults £5, Children £2. Large bonfire, sparklers, glow sticks, refreshments.
Hire St. John's Church and Fernham Village Hall
Fernham villagers can hire the new hall at St. John's Church for only a fiver an hour.
Modern community facilities have been carefully added to the village's Victorian chapel, so that the building can comfortably accommodate services, social events, lectures, exercise classes, dance lessons and much more.
