Long Crendon is a large village in the west of Buckinghamshire, perched on a ridge that offers clear views across the Thame valley towards the Chiltern Hills. Situated about nine miles west of Aylesbury and two miles from the Oxfordshire border, it is defined by its wide High Street and an abundance of timber-framed cottages that reflect its prosperity during the Middle Ages as a centre for needle-making. The village retains a functional layout with a traditional square near the 12th-century church of St Mary, and it is home to several historic landmarks, including the 15th-century Courthouse, now managed by the National Trust. While it feels rural, the village is practically located for those needing to reach London or Oxford, with the nearby station at Haddenham & Thame Parkway providing a direct rail link to Marylebone. It is a well-served community, supporting a local school, a few small shops, and several long-standing pubs, all of which maintain the village's character as a lived-in, working locality rather than just a historic curiosity.
