Originally built, we believe, in about 1865, this Victorian villa in Georgian architectural style makes for a very handsome house, together with a stunning secluded and landscaped garden. The house is of brick construction under a slate roof with large sash windows and high ceilings in the principal rooms ensuring an abundance of natural light. The current owners, who bought Milton Lodge in 1996, have been meticulous in the restoration and care of the property. Features include moulded cornices, stained glass, sash windows with original shutters, handsome fireplaces in the main reception rooms - which can be used together to provide a large entertaining area. Fitted book shelves and glass fronted cupboards, all create an elegant but very comfortable family home. The spacious accommodation provides six bedrooms with four bathrooms (three en suite) and all the major rooms have a pleasant outlook into the beautiful gardens. The hand built kitchen/breakfast/garden room has granite worktops together with a two oven Aga and four ring gas and electric module attached. Adjoining is a walk-in larder. The present owners use the triple aspect library/study as a superb home office, it would alternatively make a comfortable small sitting room, adjoining the garden room/conservatory. The study currently doubles as a cinema/TV room with a giant 74” screen. The drawing room benefits from a full height ‘triple-sash’ window with shutters, with additional double doors opening into the garden. The dining room is a beautiful room for entertaining and a games room has been created in the basement with a large amount of natural light, adjacent is the wine cellar. The parking arrangements are very practical with electric up and over doors giving immediate access to integral triple garaging with adjacent storage and access through a brick wall into the rear garden. There are two additional off road parking spaces to the front of the property. The Gardens The gardens, which are mostly south-facing and have been designed with ‘low maintenance’ in mind, are simply beautiful. As you approach the front door through a secure electrically operated pedestrian gate in the garden wall you are greeted by a hornbeam lined flagstone path at the end of which is a stone obelisk. Adjacent is a walled ‘continental’ style garden General Remarks and Stipulations decorative light fittings, wall mirrors, garden statuary, fountains with a lawned area and parterre with clipped box hedging, and Tenure and the cinema equipment.

  • Iver Motorway Service Area Response, February 2021
    President: Rt.Hon. the Lord Randall of Uxbridge Kt.PC. Planning Service Buckinghamshire Council King George V House King George V Road Amersham HP6 5AW February 2021 Dear Sir/Madam Re: Planning application PL/20/4332/0A Motorway Service Area between Junctions 15 and 16 near Iver Heath This application falls within the Colne Valley Regional Park (CVRP) and the Green Belt. Buckinghamshire Council and the former Chiltern and South Bucks Councils have been supporters of the CVRP since its inception. We hope the Council will continue to uphold the six objectives of the CVRP since this application represents the loss of farmland; the loss of 46 Ha of the CVRP and the Green Belt in a sensitive location; harm to recreational rights of way; harm to watercourses which run through the development, and the loss of, and harm to, existing grassland, woodland, hedgerows and their accompanying biodiversity. • This response to the planning application also looks at the case for the Motorway Service Areas affecting the CVRP, including the one in this location • The strategic planning context and the impact on the Green Belt • The extent of the harm arising from the scheme and • The scale of mitigation that should accompany the development if the very special circumstances’ (VSC) were to be accepted by the decision maker (whether the Council or Secretary of State). The case for an MSA in this location This application for a motorway service area is one of three currently being considered by local authorities along the north-western edge of the M25. All the operators state that there is a need for an MSA on this stretch of motorway between the existing Cobham and South Mimms MSAs.

  • Neolithic to Early Bronze Age Buckinghamshire: a Resource Assessment
    Neolithic to Early Bronze Age Buckinghamshire: a resource assessment Inheritance Mobility Although Neolithic populations are thought to have had continued mobility, more and more evidence for Neolithic settlement has come to light. In Buckinghamshire the most important evidence comes from excavations in advance of the construction of Eton Rowing Course (ERC) and the Maidenhead to Windsor and Eton Flood Alleviation Scheme (MWEFAS), mainly in the parish of Dorney in South Bucks on the Thames. The evidence points to intensive use of the area by people in the Early Neolithic but it is not certain that it represents year-round sedentary occupation rather than seasonal re-use (Allen et al 2004). Other evidence does point to continued mobility, such as the artefact scatters at Scotsgrove Mill, Haddenham (Mitchell 2004) and East Street, Chesham (Collard 1990) for example, reflecting visits over a long period of time. Persistent places Mesolithic persistent places continue to have meaning for Early and later Neolithic populations. These persistent places include East Street, Chesham (Collard 1990, 18) and Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age activity at Chessvale Bowling Club nearby (Halsted 2006, 23-8). Another persistent place seems to have been the lower reaches of the River Colne. Recent excavations at the Sanderson Site, Denham (Halsey 2005) continued the activity from nearby Three Ways Wharf, Uxbridge (Lewis 1991). Other persistent places include the attractive river valley location at Bancroft in Milton Keynes (Williams 1993, 5), and Scotsgrove Mill, Haddenham, where the River Thame meets one of its tributaries (Mitchell 2004, 1). These persistent places may have been the basis of evolving ideas about land tenure.

Installation of overhead electrification on top of the structure would be required. The design is being undertaken in conjunction with heritage specialists to help ensure that the impact on the structure is acceptable. Once installed, the gantries are likely to be visible on the bridge from viewpoints along the river and nearby. As an example, electrification for the Heathrow Express involved the provision of overhead electrification over Wharncliffe Viaduct in Ealing.

From Dominic Grieve QC MP As I write this piece, the rain is falling outside and the long-range weather forecast predicts a wet winter. I hope it may be mistaken as my trips round the constituency show me that ground and river water levels remain high after last winter’s offering. Fortunately much of Fulmer being an old settlement was wisely placed in dry locations, something which modern development often ignores. Firm foundations both terrestrial and moral are a good place to withstand the vicissitudes which daily life throws up for us. I am conscious that the year has been not without its challenges. The prospect of the start of development at Pinewood is a source of anxiety and we must strive to ensure that the process and the end result preserve Fulmer’s charms.

  • Mesolithic Industries Beside Colne Waters in Iver and Denham, Buckinghamshire A
    MESOLITHIC INDUSTRIES BESIDE COLNE WATERS IN IVER AND DENHAM, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE A. D. LACAILLE, F.S.A. I. INTRODUCTION FOR well over thirty years the author has been studying Old Stone Age antiqu- ities assignable to different Lower Palaeolithic divisions and their mode of occurrence in the Pleistocene deposits of south-east Buckinghamshire. On these relics he has published some articles embodying his observations and the conclusions he has drawn from them. Most of the information has been obtained in commercial excavations for gravel and brickearth on the ancient terraces of the Thames, including Taplow and Burnham Beeches and as far downstream as the River Colne that separates our county from Hertfordshire and Middlesex. In this border region, particularly, workings in the valley of the Colne have afforded infinitely better opportunities than any diggings in that of the main river for examining the late Pleistocene flood-plain gravel and its Holocene or Recent overburden of alluvium. This comprises the post- glacial deposits of shell-marl, peats, sands, silts and muds. Where there has been no interference with nature the top soil on these sediments variously supports marshland plants, grasses, ferns, heath, sedges, scrub and small trees. The basal flood-plain gravel has yielded many bones of the late Pleistocene fauna that in archaeological chronology would be referred to the end of the Upper Palaeolithic division of the Old Stone Age, but so far no contemporary organic or unambiguous industrial remains of man. There is, however, the abundant evidence of stone implements to show that between Upper Palaeo- lithic times and the Neolithic, or New Stone Age, human bands were active beside the waters of the Colne.
