Lying in a rolling Buckinghamshire landscape of arable fields, pasture and woodland, Foxcote Reservoir is the kind of place that rewards patient visitors. Created in 1956 by damming a small tributary of the River Great Ouse, this site has become important for the numbers of wintering waterfowl, especially wigeon and coot. https://www.bbowt.org.uk/nature-reserves/foxcote-reservoir

Beautiful village

Bean in Stony is a lovely cafe with a very good menu. Lovely courtyard with a few cycle stands down the alley. Not open on Sunday

Very good coffee and warm sausage rolls

A nice little coffee shop with inside and outside seating . Built to blend in with the new housing in Deanshanger

A nice farm shop café. At time of writing Aug 2022 The Hayloft inside seating is closed but good outside seating options

An unusal tree/hedge formation on the edge of town. It always feels like you're being waved on your way (which is nice) or being waved back home (which is even nicer)!

"The square W tower of Wicken church was erected by Robert, Lord Spencer in 1617, but the remainder of the medieval building was taken down in 1753, after it was found to be unsafe. The cost of rebuilding was met by Thomas Prowse, described as the designer of the church on a tablet in the N aisle. It was completed by 1770, and comprises a nave with aisles of equal height, N and S transepts and a square chancel. The church was restored in 1838, and again by Matthew Holding in 1896-97. In the latter restoration the chancel was lengthened to the E, the S transept was added, and a boiler-room built at the W end of the N aisle. The 12thc. font may be the sole relic of an earlier structure on the site." Cit. https://www.crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=8140
