Askett Buckinghamshire Map

About Askett

Askett rests in the gentle embrace of the Chiltern Hills, a landscape where the chalk downlands rise and fall with a subtle grace. It lies 1.9 km north-north-east of Princes Risborough (from Princes Risborough: bearing 27°T, OS grid SP 815 051), and is situated north-north-west of Whiteleaf village. The air here often carries the faint scent of beech woods, particularly in the late afternoon when the sun casts long shadows across the fields. The village itself presents a quiet collection of homes, many of which seem to have grown organically from the soil over generations, their stone walls weathered by the passage of seasons. A sense of enduring peace pervades Askett, a stillness that seems to absorb the hurried pace of the world beyond its borders. The distinctive chalk pits, remnants of past industry, now offer havens for wildflowers, their white scarps softened by the encroaching greenery.
