Beaconsfield
Beaconsfield is a market town and civil parish within the South Buckingham district of Buckinghamshire, located 23.6 miles (38 km) north west of London and 17 miles (27 km) south east of the county's administrative town, Aylesbury. Four towns are within five miles of Beaconsfield: Slough, Amersham, Gerrards Cross and High Wycombe. It has an area of 7.59 square miles. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the town boasts a permanent population of approximately 12,000 individuals. The parish church at the crossroads of Old Beaconsfield is dedicated to St. Mary, and it was rebuilt of flint and bath stone by the Victorians in 1869. The United Reformed Church in Beaconsfield can trace its roots of non-conformist worship in the town back to 1704. Old Beaconsfield features several old coaching inns along a wide street of red brick houses and little shops. It was the first coach stopping point on the road between London and Oxford. An annual fair is traditionally held on 10th May. Its charter, dating from 1269, initially allowed for an annual market for the trading of goods and livestock, but it has now evolved into a funfair, held for one day only. In the last few years, some residents have opposed the fair as a hindrance for the Old Town, and have called for the 735 year-old fair to be scrapped. The town neighbours the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and features a substantial area of Georgian, neo-Georgian and Tudor revival high street architecture, known as the Old Town. It is famous for the first model village in the world and, in education, a direction and technical production institute, the National Film and Television School.
