    Nostalgia: The story of Eskdale Avenue in Chesham (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Eskdale Avenue in Chesham is well-known for its trees. It was originally two roads which met and became one. This is the story… In the nineteenth century, Chesham started to grow out along Berkhampstead Road, and from the 1870s this area became known as New Town.

    Nostalgia: Some of the links between Buckinghamshire and USA (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    THE American Declaration of Independence was signed 250 years ago on July 4, 1776. Although across the other side of the Atlantic, our area has many links with the USA. This article explains some of them. A barn at Jordans purports to be built from timbers from the Mayflower ship which took Puritans to America in 1620, which stems from a claim made in a book called “The Last of the Mayflower” by Rendel Harris first published in 1920.
