Gerrards Cross is a town and civil parish in the South Bucks district of Buckinghamshire, England. It is in the south of the county, separated from the London Borough of Hillingdon at Harefield by Denham. London is centred 19 miles east. Geographically large and suburban, Gerrards Cross is south of Chalfont St Peter and north of Fulmer and Hedgerley. It spans foothills of the Chiltern Hills and land on the right bank of the River Misbourne — it has a central public park, Gerrards Cross Common and Bulstrode Park Camp, a preserved area of land which was an Iron Age fortified encampment.
The town has a railway station on the Chiltern main line whose operator provides a fast service from the station to London and the M40 motorway is beside woodland on the southern boundary of the civil parish and the settlement has a commercial and leisure central area which is smaller than the nearby town of Beaconsfield.
The town name is new compared with the great bulk of English towns. Gerrards Cross did not exist in any formal sense until 1859 when it was formed by taking pieces out of the five parishes of Chalfont St Peter, Fulmer, Iver, Langley Marish and Upton to form a new ecclesiastical parish. It is named after the Gerrard family who in the early 17th century owned a manor here. At that time homes which were not farms were smallholdings clustered in a hamlet in the south of an elongated parish of Chalfont St Peter. Near its centre is site of an Iron Age minor hillfort, Bulstrode Park Camp, which is a scheduled ancient monument Originally named Jarrett's Cross before the times of the Gerrard family, after a highwayman.
The large and distinctive parish church is dedicated to St. James. It was built in 1861 as a memorial to Colonel George Alexander Reid[citation needed] who was MP for Windsor and designed by Sir William Tite in yellow brick with a Byzantine style dome, Chinese looking turrets and an Italianate Campanile. In 1969 the singer Lulu married Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees in the church. The actress Margaret Rutherford is buried with her husband Stringer Davis in the St James Church graveyard. The town has its own library, various restaurants and its own cinema, the Everyman Gerrards Cross.
Independent schools include Maltman's Green School (all girls), St Mary's, Gayhurst and Thorpe House. Students of secondary school age attend either one of the local grammar schools, such as Dr Challoner's Grammar School (Boys), Dr Challoner's High School (Girls), The Royal Grammar School, High Wycombe (Boys), John Hampden Grammar School (Boys), and Beaconsfield High School (Girls) Chesham Grammar School (Co-ed), or the local Upper School, Chalfonts Community College, which is the catchment school.
On the south side of the town is the Gerrards Cross Memorial Building, on the site of the former vicarage. The building was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and unveiled in 1922 to commemorate the town's losses during the First World War. It is the only example of a Lutyens war memorial designed with a functional purpose.
Just outside Gerrards Cross, on the A40 to Beaconsfield, is Wapseys Wood landfill site, one of the largest landfill sites in the UK, operated by Veolia Landfill Ltd. It accepts up to 900,000 tonnes of non hazardous waste each year from south Buckinghamshire, London and other areas. The landfill gas produced from the waste yields over 10 megawatts of electricity which is fed into the power grid.

Places to see in ( Llandovery - UK )
Places to see in ( Llandovery - UK )
Llandovery is a community and market town in Carmarthenshire, Wales, lying on the River Tywi and the A40/A483 roads. The town is served by Llandovery railway station, where there is a park and ride to Llanelli and Shrewsbury via the Heart of Wales Line. Llandovery — a corruption of Llanymddyfri, meaning Llan ymlith y dyfroedd (Church enclosure amidst the waters) — owes its name to its position between the River Tywi and the Afon Brân just upstream of their confluence. A smaller watercourse, the Bawddwr, runs through and under the town. Llandovery is twinned with Pluguffan in Brittany, France.
Attractions in the town include the remains of Llandovery Castle, built in 1110 and almost immediately captured by the Welsh, changing hands between Normans and Welsh until the reign of King Edward I of England. The castle was used by King Henry IV while on a sortie into Wales when he executed Llywelyn ap Gruffydd Fychan in the marketplace. It was later attacked by the forces of Owain Glyndŵr in 1403.
A 16-foot (4.9 m) high stainless steel statue to Llywelyn ap Gruffydd Fychan was unveiled in 2001 on the north side of Llandovery Castle, overlooking the place of his execution six hundred years earlier. He had led the army of King Henry IV on 'a wild goose chase' under the pretence of leading them to a secret rebel camp and an ambush of Glyndŵr's forces. King Henry lost patience with him, exposed the charade and had him half hanged, disemboweled in front of his own eyes, beheaded and quartered - the quarters salted and dispatched to other Welsh towns for public display.
The Physicians of Myddfai practised in the area. Llandovery is also the place where one of the first independent Welsh banks, The Black Ox, was established by a wealthy drover (later to become part of Lloyds TSB bank). The building is part of the King's Head inn which was the home of The Bank of the Black Ox.
Also in the town are a charity-run theatre (Llandovery Theatre), a heritage centre and Llandovery College. A tourist information and heritage centre is situated in the heart of the town. It houses exhibitions on the Tonn Press, the area's droving history and the nineteenth-century geologist Sir Roderick Impey Murchison, whose work in the area resulted in the assignment of the name Llandovery to rocks of a certain age across the entire world. The Llandovery Epoch is the earliest in the Silurian Period of geological time.
In a small market place in the centre of Llandovery is Llandovery Town Hall (1857-8) by the architect Richard Kyke Penson. There is a courtroom over an open market, in an Italianate style. The building has two storeys with open arcades. At the rear are police cells with iron grilles and entry to the courtroom (now used as a library) under a clock tower. Many visitors use Llandovery as a touring base for the western part of the Brecon Beacons National Park which lies immediately to the south of the town. For others it is a stop en route to Pembrokeshire and West Wales. Large numbers of motorcyclists congregate, particularly at weekends, in the West End cafe on Broad Street, part of the A40. The Dolaucothi Gold Mines are located 10 miles (16 km) away near Pumpsaint on the A482, a road which follows the line of the original Roman road to Llanio fort.
Llandovery lies immediately to the north of Brecon Beacons National Park and Fforest Fawr Geopark, an area whose geological heritage is celebrated. These designated landscapes are centred on Bannau Sir Gâr or the Carmarthen Fans, themselves a part of the Black Mountain, an upland area which extends north towards the town as Mynydd Myddfai and Mynydd Bach Trecastell. The small village of Myddfai is located within the National Park, four miles (6 km) to the south east of Llandovery. The Llyn Brianne dam is 11 miles (18 km) to the North located in rugged and impressive countryside above Rhandir-mwyn. On the journey to the dam, visitors also pass the site of Twm Siôn Cati's Cave at the RSPB's Dinas reserve.

Gerrards Cross Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Buckinghamshire, and around 20 miles west, and slightly north, of central London is the town of Gerrards Cross (previously a village up until 2016).
The town's name comes from the Gerrard family who owned a manor here in the 17th century. However, it wasn't until 1859 that it became known as 'Gerrards Cross', presumably in relation to its site at the old crossroads of the London to Oxford road running from east to west and the Amersham to Windsor road running from north to south.
In 1906 the railway arrived in Gerrards Cross as part of the Great Western and Great Central Joint Railway. Today the station is situated on the Chiltern Main Line with direct services to London to the east and Banbury to the northwest. Trains to London Marylebone take around half an hour, making Gerrards Cross a practical commuter base, although this is priced into the housing market, where the average house price in the town is over £1.1 million (based on sold prices over the previous year at the time of writing, according to rightmove.co.uk).

12 Most Haunted Places in Buckinghamshire
Would you want to know the 12 most haunted place in Buckinghamshire?
Britain has been named the most haunted country in the world. Even if that can be contested, there’s no gainsaying the fact that it has a lot of haunted places with tales of ghosts and spirits. However, some cities and towns have less of such places. We’ve produced a two-part video about the most haunted places in the UK. We have two other videos that focus on each city replete with such stories. Today, we want to focus on the 12 most haunted places in Buckinghamshire. We understand these places in Buckinghamshire aren’t among the most popular in the UK. Thus, as we discuss each of them, we’ll describe their location before explaining their features as haunted towns or villages.
1. Chenies Manor House, Chenies
Chenies Manor House is in the parish of Chenies in Buckinghamshire. It’s a Tudor Grade I listed building which was once known as Chenies Palace, though it was neither a royal seat nor the seat of a bishop. Since the 12th century, the manor house was held by the Cheney family and has successively passed by marriage to other families. The House which has 22 chimneys was visited by both King Henry VIII along with some of his wives and Queen Elizabeth I. It’s thought to be haunted by the ghost of one of the hundreds of soldiers killed in the area during the English Civil War. Visitors have been reporting catching a glimpse of the spirit nursing his wounds tragically or hearing him limping up and down the home's staircase.
2. Finnamore Wood, Marlow
We want to talk about a location in Marlow. In this town which is also a civil parish in Buckinghamshire, located on the River Thames, 6 kilometres south-southwest of High Wycombe, 8 kilometres west-northwest of Maidenhead, and 53 kilometres west of central London, there’s a haunted place called Finnamore Wood. It’s in one of the most rural areas of the town on the site of the former Evacuation Camp. It used to be known as Finnamore Wood Holiday & Evacuation Camp and housed evacuees from Beal Modern Girls' School and others displaced during the Second World War. In 1948, the wood housed members of the American Canoe team training at the Marlow Rowing Club for their Olympic Rowers.
3. Fulmer
Fulmer is a village and civil parish near the town of Gerrards Cross. It has along its northern border a narrow buffer from the town while it is heavily wooded, adjoining neighbouring villages of Wexham and Iver Heath. The most haunted place here is Fulmer Place, a Grade II listed mansion which was formerly the residence of Lord John Hay.
