High Wycombe
A large market town in Buckinghamshire's Chiltern Hills, High Wycombe sits along the River Wye with a walkable centre dense with listed historic buildings, churches, and cafés. Its High Street market dates to at least the Middle Ages, and furniture-making shaped much of the town's industrial history. Several UNESCO World Heritage sites lie within reach in the wider region.
