Old Amersham Historic Centre
In the countryside and yet last station on the London Underground. 7 Lollard Martyrs were burnt at the stake here. Many picturesque buildings which have appeared in everything from John Betjeman's Metroland to Four Weddings and a Funeral. St Mary's Church contains the grave of Ruth Ellis the last woman to be hanged in Britain. Old Amersham remains unspoilt because they refused to allow a railway to be built nearby by and Amersham on the Hill grew up around Amersham Railway Station which is a full mile away.
The video finishes with shots of the splendid Kings Arms Hotel. You also briefly see the Crown Hotel.
Dutch Street Organ Het Roosje (52 key)
Built originally by Henk Mohlmann in the 1950s incorporating many parts from older organs that had reached the end of their useful life, this compact size 52 key Dutch Street organ was restored in 2010 by Cas Hendrickx. It was used on the streets of Rotterdam. Now part of a private collection in the UK this organ is similar to other 52 key instruments using the standard 52 Limonaire scale other than its compact size. It has an extensive library of music from the traditional to modern tunes. In this video Het Roosje is playing the book Schon, dass du wieder bei mir bist arranged by Thomas Sterk.
