Chandpur lies in Lat. 290 8’ N. and Long.  780 16’ E., at a distance of about 40 km. south-east of Bijnor with which it is connected with a metalled road. It is also a junction of many metalled roads leading from Haldaur on the on the north, Nihtaur on the north-east, Amroha on the south-east, Bashta on the south-west and Nurpur on the east.

Historically speaking Chandpur is of very little importance except that a legend associates its name with one Chand Khan who is supposed to have founded it in

pre-Mughal days, an old sand-stone tomb standing in the neighbourhood  of the town supposed by being his tomb.

Lying at an elevation of some 143.25 m. above sea-level, the town is irregular in shape and is surrounded by a number of ponds and depression.
