Over to Candleford is a 1941 semi-autobiographical novel by the English author Flora Thompson.

In 1945 the book was republished as part of the trilogy Lark Rise to Candleford, comprising the novels Lark Rise (1939), Over to Candleford (1941), and Candleford Green (1943).

The novel follows the childhood of Laura Timmins (the author Flora Thompson herself, born Flora Timms) in the small rural northern Oxfordshire hamlet of 'Lark Rise' and the surrounding countryside. It is a study of her family and relatives in the nearby market town of 'Candleford' (based chiefly on Buckingham).
