Title
L3534 - View across fields to Radnage, South Buckinghamshire
Description
L3534 - Rolling hills slope down to the South Buckinghamshire village of Radnage, nestled in the Chilterns a couple of miles west of the Great Central and Great Western Joint Line. A scattered rural community, it has no central point, but instead consists of a number of small hamlets and farmhouses - one of which can be seen to the left of the valley. Also visible is the parish church of St Mary's standing alone on Church Lane. Built around the late twelfth/ early thirteenth century by the Knights Templar (a monastic military order) it is unusual in having a central tower. The only original part of the building, it stands at around 10ft square and is of a later Norman/ early English style. In the churchyard, a gravestone depicting a man hunting a bear with a bow and arrow is said to mark the burial of the man who killed the last bear in England.
