TV filming location -- The Vicar of Dibley

The picturesque village of Turville in Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom, which is best known for doubling for Dibley in the television comedy series The Vicar of Dibley. The church that doubled for St Barnabus [sic] Church is St Mary The Virgin Church.

Time Out Walks, Book 1, Walk 22, Haslemere Circular. 24/7/13

Another trip around this very pleasant 9 miler in the Surrey countryside.
Shortly after leaving the rail station, it's not long before the walker is entering the South Downs National Park, though much of the land surrounding the town is National Trust owned anyway.
The morning section is mainly delightful mixed woodland walking prior to reaching the village of Fernhurst for the suggested lunch time stop.
After lunch, the scenery is still pleasingly wooded, but with more heathland as the walker ascends past the 'Temple of Winds' (well worth the additional detour!) and onto the highest point in the National Park (and Sussex!), the 919 feet (280m) of Black Down.
A great shorter walk that is a delight at any time of the year.

Goring Circular Chiltern Walk via River Thames Path 13 June 2009

A 10 mile circular walk from Goring and Streatley Station via the Thames Path to Whitchurch-on-Thames and then through the Chiltern Hills via Wroxhills Wood back to Goring. The walk took place in sunny weather on Saturday 13 June 2009.
