The Commemorative Oak Tree to mark the Coronation of King Charles III on 6th May 2023 has now been planted on the triangle. A commemorative plaque is due to be installed in the next few weeks.

The annual Beating the Bounds of Chesham Bois will take place on Sunday 5th May 2024. All are welcome, including dogs on leads, for a conducted walk of approximately 5 miles taking roughly 2 hours to trace the Parish boundary. The route includes stiles and Jacobs Ladder and is not suitable for pushchairs.

Refreshments will be available after the walk at the Parish Centre.

The Annual Parish Meeting was held on Monday 22nd April at the Parish Centre.

Thank you to all residents who attended and to the Thames Valley Police, The Amersham Museum and The Chiltern Society for their interesting talks.

A pair of glasses were found in the New Formal area of the Burial Ground over the weekend. If these are yours please contact the Clerk on 01494 432585 or clerk@cheshamboispc.org.uk.

The Chiltern Society Volunteers have recently completed much needed improvement and repair works to Jacobs Ladder. These much used steps have been used for many years. Continued maintenance will ensure that they can be used for years to come. Link to image of the newly refurbished steps below:

Following advice from the arboriculturist engaged by the Parish Council to conduct regular inspection of trees,  two mature trees on the War Memorial ‘triangle,’ bordered by Bois Lane, Glebe Way and North Road, will unfortunately have to be felled in March 2024 because they have been reported to be affected by ash dieback disease.
