Chipping is situated at the foot of three hills, to the north Chipping Hill, to the east Capons Hill and the west Mill Hill.
Though historically Chipping was surrounded by dense woodland used for graving pigs and sheep, today only Capons Wood to the east and Burhill Wood to the west of the village survive (never have public right of way).
College Wood (formerly adjacent to Capons Wood) was removed in the 1950s/60s, alongside the reduction in the size of Burhill Wood (around 80% of its total area) to make way for increased farmland.

The River Rib runs through the village, with one bridge (Chipping Bridge) across the A10 and two fords along public footpaths crossing the river.

The village of Buckland lies one mile north of Chipping, whilst the prime meridian passes to the east of Chipping.
