  • Moving out of London for Village Life? Here Are the Top 7 Most Popular Villages to Move to in the Chilterns Submitted By: Hudia Tuesday, 16 March 2021
    Moving out of London for village life? Here are the top 7 most popular villages to move to in The Chilterns Submitted by: Hudia Tuesday, 16 March 2021 Due to COVID, Chiltern Relocation has seen a shift in house-hunter priorities. Walking distance to a train station and a super quick commute into London, is no longer top of the list of requirements. Sharon Hewitt, founder of multi-award winning Chiltern Relocation said: “Clients are wanting a more rural lifestyle but are still keen to enjoy all the perks of town life such as local schools, pubs and shops and an active community. We’ve drawn up our list of the seven most popular village locations in The Chilterns, perfect to relocate to.” Penn Penn is a sought-after village in Buckinghamshire, a couple of miles north of Beaconsfield. At its centre is a very picturesque duck pond and village green. Penn is within the Chiltern Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and is very popular with families wanting a semi-rural setting but close to major transport links. It is only minutes from the M40, M25 and Heathrow. Penn is also very close to the mainline rail station at Beaconsfield with journey times of approx. 25 minutes to London Marylebone. Penn has a thriving village community. It boasts a few village shops and doctor’s surgery. There are a number of excellent local country pubs dotted around Penn and the neighbouring villages of Tylers Green and Forty Green. There are great primary schools in the village. Penn Street Penn’s smaller neighbour, Penn Street, is nestled in the Chiltern hills.

    September 2019 RAMBLERS NEWS Amersham & District Newsletter Our New Website Peter H not only took over as Membership Secretary at the last AGM, he also took it upon himself to update our Group website and he has done a brilliant job — take a look. As well as all our walks and a summary of our Group it has other information such as our Group Holiday and previous Newsletters. It wasn’t an easy task as the software is somewhat out of date but he persevered and result is great. Well done Peter and thank you. Successful Path Checking Day The path checking day on 3rd August was a great success and proved to be very worthwhile. An enthusiastic team of 15 people in 7 groups checked 44 out of 82 paths in the Great Missenden Parish with 68 problems reported including signposts, gates and stiles. Reporting the problems and getting them fixed helps to keep the network of footpaths safe and clear for walking in our area. We are keen to build on this successful day, so if you have time to walk some of the paths in your area please volunteer for path checking by contacting Vince or John (details on back page of Programme). Where are Path Checkers needed? Path Checkers are needed in Chalfont St Peter, Chartridge, Little Chalfont, Seer Green and The Lee and assistant Path Checkers are needed in Amersham, Ashley Green, Chesham, Chesham Bois, Cholesbury, Little Missenden and Great Missenden. What do they check for? They check for and report any problems with signposts, waymarkers, gates and stiles, overgrowth/ undergrowth, barriers, crops, trees etc.

  • Seer Green Village Plan
    Holy Trinity Church SEER GREEN VILLAGE PLAN Prepared by Seer Green Parish Council March 2011 THE PURPOSE OF THIS PLAN The purpose of the Seer Green village plan is briefly to describe the history of, and outline the facilities available in Seer Green and having done so to set out a clear list of what the Parish council considers to be the most important priorities in order to achieve the vision set for the village in section 1.6. It is hoped that the pursuit of these priorities will improve the social, economic and environmental conditions in the village. As circumstances change, the plan may be amended so as always to be relevant in the prevailing climate. Incidentally there may be many other persons, companies and organisations who may find the plan helpful, and these may include local residents, newcomers to the village, shopkeepers and other businesses in the village, local estate agents, other local councils and indeed anyone who may be interested in the village of Seer Green. 1. THE VILLAGE OF SEER GREEN, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE 1.1 History and background The village and civil parish of Seer Green lie close by the historic village of Jordans and about one mile east of Beaconsfield. There is a legend that King Arthur’s ‘seer’ Merlin, rested here on his journeys to and from Camelot. Locals would consult with him about the future at the village well. A more likely origin of the name ‘seer’ comes from a Norman map that shows a hamlet called ‘Sere’ (literally ‘dry). Edward, the Black Prince (1330 - 1376) hunted in the large forests that covered the area and built a hunting box close by.

  • Chiltern Councillor Update Economic Profile of Seer Green Ward
    Chiltern Councillor Update Economic Profile of Seer Green Ward April 2014 Produced by Buckinghamshire Business First’s research department P a g e | 2 1.0 Introduction Seer Green is home to 2,311 people and provides 700 jobs in 30 businesses. Of these businesses, seven (23.3 per cent) are Buckinghamshire Business First members. There were 1,626 employed people aged 16-74 living in Seer Green ward at the 2011 Census, 15 more than the 1,611 recorded in 2001. Over that period the working age population fell 16 to 1,413 while the total population rose 41 to 2,311. The number of households rose by 15 (1.7 per cent) to 889. This is a significant percentage increase and places the ward 21st out of all wards in Chiltern. Based on the increase in number of households, the ward ranks 85th out of all wards in Buckinghamshire. The largest companies in Seer Green include: Perkin Elmer Ltd; Manorgrove Homes Ltd; HBM Ltd; Beaconsfield Golf Club Ltd; Seer Green Nursery; Anderson McKenzie Consulting; and Mark 1 Motors. There are 14 Seer Green, representing 1.0 per cent of working age residents, including 10 claimants aged 25-49 and five who have been claiming for more than twelve months. Superfast broadband is expected to be available to 93 per cent of premises in the Seer Green ward by March 2016 with commercial providers responsible for the full 93 per cent. The Connected Counties project, run by BBF, will therefore deliver no fibre connectivity due to sufficient coverage through commercial intervention.

  • Chiltern District Council Election Results 1973-2011
    Chiltern District Council Election Results 1973-2011 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS and POTTERIES, C.1200–1910 by MICHAEL FARLEY and BARBARA HURMAN Offprinted from RECORDS of BUCKS
    BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS AND POTTERIES, C.1200–1910 BY MICHAEL FARLEY AND BARBARA HURMAN Offprinted from RECORDS OF BUCKS Vol. 55 2015 BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS AND POTTERIES, c.1200–1910 MICHAEL FARLEY AND BARBARA HURMAN An attempt is made to list Buckinghamshire’s pottery production sites and potters from the thirteenth century until c.1910 and to give a short description of their products where known. The information is derived from confirmed kiln sites, from surface finds of ‘waster’ material which indicate production, and from a range of documentary sources including field names. There remains considerable scope for further local research; a number of suspected production sites have not yet been located on the ground and further local study would certainly identify other potters and link named potters to specific locations. Several features have emerged from the study. Firstly, a number of production sites are known to have been active in recent centuries, but for which there is no earlier record. It is suspected that some of these may have had earlier undocumented activity. Secondly, and perhaps unsurprisingly, many pottery centres were located on agriculturally marginal land. Thirdly, several of the pottery families followed their trade over generations and this is likely to have been the case long before documentation becomes available. Finally, the number of ‘pot hawkers’ recorded, particularly in the mid-nineteenth century, is surprising as it almost equals the number of working potters; their role in distributing the wares of country potteries may have been underestimated in the past. quently exposed, for example by being ploughed up, I NTRODUCT ION weathering of their relatively soft and open fabric Until shortly before the Roman conquest all pottery may leave little trace of them.
