Turville and Chilterns

Sunday 13th July: One place we had to visit locally was Turville, a beautiful part of the Chilterns, well known as the location for the 'Vicar of Dibley' and the film 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang'. The church in the village, and the windmill on the hill are recognisable as they were both used on the screen. We visited the very welcoming small church and had a local Brakspear ale at the 'Bull and Butcher' after walking around the valley and up and down the hill for some magnificent views of the surrounding countryside on a perfect English day.
