Wycombe District is situated in south west of Buckinghamshire and is linked to the M40 at 3 junctions - 3, 4 and 5, with rail links to Birmingham and London Marylebone via the Chiltern Railways line.
The District has three historic town centres - urban High Wycombe, the small town of Princes Risborough and Marlow on the River Thames. All three centres are surrounded by the scenic countryside of the Chilterns and the Thames Valley, most of which is Green Belt and within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Major companies within the District include Dunn and Bradstreet, Volvo, SAAB, Verco, Ercol and Rank Hovis McDougall. Most indoor and outdoor sports are catered for and the football club has a first class modern stadium which is now shared with the Rugby team, London Wasps. It also boasts a beautiful theatre, The Wycombe Swan which seats 1,000 people and hosts many of the country's leading shows. |
