With no formal definition, it is marked on maps as the area north and east of or including Silwood Park and south of Sunninghill Park; Harewood Lodge followed by Titness House to its immediate east are of similar 18th century construction and have sometimes been recorded as in the Cheapside locality.

It is throughout at lower altitude (elevation) than the mainly 18th century built-up village south of the church forming the heart of Sunninghill. In the south-east it has the west shore of Virginia Water Lake. Cheapside is centred {{convert|1.5|mi}} east of the centre of Ascot, one of Europe's main venues in horse racing. East is the southern part of Windsor Great Park which has denser pockets of tall trees; Sunninghill has remains of its forest throughout — Sunninghill Park was part of Windsor Forest until King Charles I sold it to the Thomas Carey (English politician) in 1630.[3] The park to the east is used by the Royal Family peripheral members of whom have had homes in Sunninghill and at Bagshot Park to the south. The area is dotted with artificial feeder ponds or lakes to the Bourne which rises at multiple sources in the area. {{clear}}Amenities{{See also|Sunninghill, Berkshire|Ascot, Berkshire}}
The main public amenity is Cheapside (C of E) Primary School, since the mid-20th century, a large building on a 2-acre site, having been directly south historically.
The area has for more than eight centuries been a neighbourhood in the north of the Anglican parish of Sunninghill. Its church replaced a forerunner on the site (about half a mile south of Cheapside) built in about 1120 and may have had earlier predecessors.[5][6] The south of the once more extensive parish of Sunninghill was the main contributor to more populous Sunningdale.
