#exploring St Lawrence church, West Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, UK
St Lawrence's Church is a Church of England church in the parish of West Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England. It sits on top of West Wycombe Hill in a prominent position overlooking the West Wycombe Road, and surrounding villages. West Wycombe Hill is managed by the #NationalTrust, although the church and graveyard are owned by the Church of England. The church resides in the #Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. St Lawrence Church and the mausoleum both occupy similar positions on top of West Wycombe Hill, and the Church tower is visible for many miles around. The top of the tower is the highest point in the Southern Chilterns and on a clear day it is possible to see West London.

High Wycombe variety - 1962
In the summer of 1962 the former Great Western's Birmingham main line was at its busiest ever as additional trains were being run to compensate for a reduced service on the West Coast Main Line from Euston as a result of the electrification works on that line. Thus, at High Wycombe, on a date not recorded, we see an up express behind a new maroon Western diesel then the old guard in the form of a King, then a Black 5, an Eastern Region B1 and, the only identifiable engine, no 6005 King George II - all on down expresses. This was the final year of the Kings and we see another one out in the countryside and finally, at Gerrards Cross, an unidentified Castle.

Back to my Roots - High Wycombe to Beaconsfield - Episode 100 (4K)
For the 100th episode of my Walking Vlog series I returned to the town of my birth to revisit the final walk of the Remapping High Wycombe project that I did with my sister between 2004-05. This takes us through the Desborough Hundred. This was when I started this YouTube channel and when I started using video to regularly document my walks.
The route takes us from High Wycombe town centre up through the Museum grounds and above the cemetery then out to Hughenden Manor. From here we climb to the Disraeli Monument then pass through Downley to Desborough Castle. I rest on Tom Burt's Hill before crossing the Wycombe Rye and follow the River Wye to Loudwater. From here we walk past Cut Throat Wood and along the Chiltern Way to Beaconsfield.

All Saints Church High Wycombe
Bishop Wulfstan of Worcester consecrated the first church on the site over 900 years ago, at about the time of the Domesday survey. The builders used some materials from an even earlier age - it is still possible to see Roman stone in the walls, from a nearby 2nd century villa.
The building was extended during the reign of Henry II, when the church was bestowed on the Abbey of Godstow.
There has been a Christian community in Wycombe for nearly 1000 years, and we, the present congregation, are the inheritors of their predecessors' task of building the Kingdom in this part of England.
Bishop Wulfstan of Worcester consecrated the first church on the site over 900 years ago, at about the time of the Domesday survey. The builders used some materials from an even earlier age - it is still possible to see Roman stone in the walls, from a nearby 2nd century villa.
The building was extended during the reign of Henry II, when the church was bestowed on the Abbey of Godstow.
The church was rebuilt in 1275.
By 1509 the central tower was causing concern, and was taken down. A new tower was completed in 1522, and the pinnacles were added in 1755. The tower now contains a peal of thirteen bells.
In the early 1990s, repairs were carried out to the roof and interior plasterwork. The green glass, installed in the Victorian restoration, was replaced with the clear Georgian glass you see today, and the temporary wooden rostrum below the chancel steps (which had been with us for some thirty years) replaced by a fine stone plinth.
The reredos was moved westwards to its present position, making space for the Sacristy, ambulatory and choir vestry under the east window. This vacated the north chapel, allowing an unobstructed view of the Shelburne memorial, carved by the Flemish sculptor, Peter Scheemakers in 1754.
A little known feature of All Saints is that William Petty the 2nd Earl of Shelburne, who was Prime Minister of England, July 1782-April 1783, is buried in its vaults. In 1761, having briefly served as MP for Wycombe, he succeeded his father as Earl of Shelburne. Following his resignation as Prime Minister he was created Marquis of Lansdowne and Earl Wycombe. He lived at Loakes (now known as Wycombe Abbey) from 1761 until he retired in 1784 to his other seat, Bowood in Wiltshire.
Following his death at Lansdowne House, Berkeley Square, London he was buried in the family vault in the North Chancel Chapel of All Saints Parish Church on 14 May 1805.
Whilst there is a record in the burial register and a description of his coffin and funeral cortege in the Gentleman's Magazine there is no memorial in the church to him.
The entrance to the vault was tiled over by Street in the 1873-5 restoration of the church. So its exact position is not marked though it is known to be under the great baroque monument erected to Henry Petty, which included an enlarged family vault beneath. The monument by Scheemakers depicts Henry, reclining on a sarcophagus surrounded by his family who pre-deceased him. The Earl and Countess and some of their children are buried in the vault beneath.
William's first wife, Lady Sophia Cartaret, died aged 25. She is commemorated in a heroic marble monument by Carlini in the South (Lady) Chapel, commissioned by the Earl.
It depicts her in classical mode with her two adoring sons. Sophia and her youngest son, and Shelburne's second wife are also buried in the family vault.
The lack of a memorial to the Marquis is a bit of a mystery. He had fallen out with his eldest son, and had espoused unpopular polices. He was best remembered for the loss of the American Colonies, unfair though that was.
In fact he was responsible for the Treaty of Paris, 1783, which gave the United States its independence and provided a just settlement that suited the interests of both sides.
There is a modern coloured glass window near the Shelburne Monument which commemorates the role of the Earl Petty and Benjamin Franklin in the negotiation of the Treaty.

Things to look out for:-
Frances Dove Window at All Saints Church she founded Wycombe Abbey she should have been High Wycombe's first female Mayor but a near riot prevented this, she presented the Window to the Church depicting many famous women throughout history in 1933.

The Volkswagen Lupo ended up in the 30ft deep hole in Walter's Ash, High Wycombe. Luckily no-one was inside the car when the hole opened up. The area has been cordoned off while building experts investigate whether the house is at risk. Report by Ashley Fudge.
