More about this scene

Our tour along the Chess valley towards Rickmansworth starts on the hills south of the valley in Chesham Bois, originally a scattered village with the church at the north end and more houses along the north side of Chesham Bois Common. It expanded rapidly after the Metropolitan Railway arrived at Chesham in 1889, indeed Star Cottage, the second house from the left, is dated 1890.
