Details

Meeting at Princes Risborough Station, we’ll catch the train to Haddenham and Thame Parkway, to start the walk back to Princes Risborough. The walk will take us through the important pastures, arable fields and flood meadows of the Vale of Aylesbury, not much changed since the Bronze Age, it has been suggested. With the escarpment always before us, we’ll walk through the Gault vale, until finally rising onto the Upper Greensand of Horsenden and Lower Chalk of Princes Risborough. On the way we will pass through Aston Sandford, reputed to be one of the smallest villages in England, and Ilmer, whose one-time Lord of the Manor was Odo, Bishop of Bayeux, and brother of William the Conqueror.
