St Bartholomew's Church, Fingest

Highlight • Religious Site

This 12th century church's tower has quite unusual twin gables; and there is, apparently, only one other church in Britain that has such a design. Only one other church in Britain is thought to share this design. The tower once had two bells in it, but only one remains, dating back to 1830. Worth having a look!

View of Fingest Village from Finest Wood

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Chiltern Way long distance walking path climbs up the hill from Fingest through the wood to the summit of the hill in Adam's Wood. The woodland is a nice-mixed woodland with nice views back to Fingest village. The church with its unusual double spire is easily visible.

Hambleden Mill

Highlight • Historical Site

Hambleden Mill is an historic watermill built for grinding flour. It was constructed on the fast-flowing and narrow Hambleden Bourne, which discharges into the River Thames at this point. It has now been converted into flats and is Grade II listed. A mill on this site was mentioned in the Domesday Book when it had a rent of £1 per year. A nearby fishery at Hambleden in 1086 produced 1,000 eels, for which this part of the Thames was famous. Alison Uttley, who is best known for her children's series about Little Grey Rabbit and Sam Pig, described the Mill building as ‘The most beautiful place in the whole length of the long Thames valley’ and it appears in many paintings and photographs.

Turville Village

Highlight • Structure

This is a spectacularly picturesque village in the heart of the Chiltern Hills. Almost everything about it screams "quaint and English". Little wonder that this was where a lot of the sitcom "The Vicar of Dibley" was shot.

At the foot of Turville Hill (easy to climb in a few minutes from the village), the village has the lovely St Mary the Virgin Church and a terrific pub. Overlooking the village from the hill is the Cobstone Windmill. In the spring and summer, the beautiful houses and their gardens are teeming with colourful flowers.

Of beautiful English villages, this is one of the best I've ever seen. It makes you feel you're in the Cotswolds. That kind of thing.
