Located in Buckinghamshire midway between Aylesbury and High Wycombe, Princes Risborough is a small market town surrounded by unspoilt countryside. During the reign of Henry VIII, the town was granted the right to hold several annual fairs as well as two weekly markets. The Market Square remains the focal point of the town and is approached by picturesque streets lined with 17th and 18th Century cottages. The 17th Century Market House stands at its centre.
