Description Incorrect Description? Tell Us!East Claydon is a village in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located about two and a half miles south west of Winslow.

The village name 'Claydon' is Anglo Saxon in origin, and derives from the old English clægig + dun meaning 'clay hill'. The affix 'East' is used to differentiate the village from nearby Steeple Claydon and Middle Claydon, and from the hamlet of Botolph Claydon that lies within the parish of East Claydon.

The rural village of around 60 houses currently includes a primary school and a volunteer-run pub and also features a distinctive thatched tree with seating around the base. The village hall has a bell tower, the bell of which is known as 'the mushroom', in reference to its shape. This is also reflected in the name of the pub 'The Mushroom Club'.

The parish church dedicated to St Mary is comprised of components from various centuries, the earliest of which is the 13th Century.
