From the dialogue of Camberwick Green it is discovered that Wellchester is the main city of Trumptonshire county. In the Chigley episode "The Balloon Flight", viewers are given sweeping aerial views across the Trumptonshire countryside and skyline; from this it is seen that Trumptonshire possesses a large medieval castle, although it is never named in the programmes. Murray is not known to have provided any definitive map of Trumptonshire. The only map regularly seen in the programmes is located in the control room of Trumpton fire station, and analysis has suggested that it actually depicts the area around
Florence in Italy. Nonetheless, the following Trumptonshire
settlements are identified in the storylines of the programmes. •
Camberwick Common, bordering Camberwick Green, is not visited in the programmes, but is referenced as a usual place of training for the Pippin Fort soldier boys. There are
clay pits nearby. •
Camberwick Green is a quiet village community with a Post Office and several village shops, as was still common in late 1960s England. The wider parish includes outlying properties such as Colley's Mill, Bell's Farm, Crockett's Garage, Tripp's Dairy, and Pippin Fort. The village is central to the first Trumptonshire series, and is featured or referenced in all three series. •
Chigley is another quiet village community, but with a less defined village centre. It is located a short distance from Camberwick Green. It features some heavy industry, including Cresswell's Chigley Biscuit factory, and Treddle's Wharf, as well as cottage industry, represented by the Chigley Pottery. A canal between Trumpton and Chigley (named as the Trumpton Canal), a lock named Camberwick Lock and a river (unnamed in the programmes) run through the village. It is central to the third and final Trumptonshire series. •
Oakridge is a village near Trumpton. The cottages of Mrs Cobbit and of Dora & Chippy Minton are revealed to be located on the road from Trumpton to Oakridge. •
Trimbridge is the next village after Chigley along the river; the river bridge at Trimbridge is the first crossing point of the river after Chigley bridge; there is a direct road from Chigley to Trimbridge, running alongside the river. •
Trumpton is the local market town, with a local corporation and mayor, and numbers of infrastructure features for the wider region, most famously the Fire Brigade with Trumpton Fire Station. There are various shops, and a large public park, and many streets of terraced housing. Some residents (such as the Mintons) are depicted as living in cottages on the outer edge of the town. It has (amongst other facilities) a hospital, swimming pool (mentioned or referenced in Camberwick Green episode 12), public library, waterworks, and gasworks. It is central to the second Trumptonshire series. •
Wellchester is the county's large town or city community, some distance from Trumpton via Trumpton Fire Station, and with large department stores. The character Mrs Honeyman ventures to Wellchester (in Camberwick Green episode 6) having heard that one of the department stores has a sale on hats. •
Winkstead Hall estate is the home of Lord Belborough and his domestic staff, located on the edge of Chigley. It is depicted in every Chigley episode. •
Wintlebury is another Trumptonshire town. The programmes were made in an era in which many British communities were adjusting to life without local railway services, following the
Beeching cuts. The only rail service depicted in the series is Lord Belborough's
heritage railway, but the nearest mainline railway station is said to be in Wintlebury, from which there are direct trains to London. Driving directions quoted in the series reveal that Wintlebury is reached from Chigley by driving through Trumpton. ==Actual locations==
