Monks Risborough: Aylesbury Road
The main Aylesbury Road used to run in front of these houses but was moved away to the right in a road widening scheme, leaving a narrow slice of green, visible on the right. The white building is the former Nag's Head public house. All these buildings date from the 18th and 19th centuries and are within the Monks Risborough Conservation Area.

Former KX100 Telephone Box in Monks Risborough
Situated on the A4010 Aylesbury Road HP27 0JT, this telephone box has a notice inside it indicating that it will shortly be removed due to lack of usage. The former BT Piper logo can be seen on its door, whilst to the left of the photo can be seen a red box presumably for use by the local postman. Update: this telephone box has since been removed from this location.

Burton Lane, Monks Risborough
A short village street but very pretty, thanks as much to the old front garden walls and plants behind as to the Chiltern vernacular cottages.
