Chipping Sodbury

Chipping Sodbury is a small market town in South Gloucestershire, United Kingdom, bordering onto Yate. The town is blessed with a name which is humorous to many.

Near the town is a railway tunnel under the Cotswolds, about 4 km long, which was opened in 1902. The Chipping Sodbury tunnel is notorious for flooding in wet weather, often leading to disruption of services on the main railway line to and from South Wales.
