IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Bois Lane, AMERSHAM, HP6 6DH

A Church of England primary school in the village of Chesham Bois, Buckinghamshire.

As it bends sharply to the left, Bois Lane crosses a narrow bridge over London Underground's Metropolitan Line. As there is no space for vehicles to pass nor can drivers see oncoming traffic, traffic lights have been installed to control the flow of traffic onto the bridge.

St. Leonard's Church, in the village of Chesham Bois, dates from the 13th Century although the building has been extensively altered since then.

A footpath leads from this gate to St. Leonard's Church, visible in the background.

London Underground extends into the Buckinghamshire countryside. A single track branch line from Chalfont & Latimer runs to Chesham. This view is taken from the road bridge near Chesham Bois. The bridge parapet has been fitted with grilles, hence the dark stripes up either side of the image. The blue arch carries lineside cables across the track. The trains are powered by electricity - the rail in the middle of the track, and the one furthest to the right, are the electrification system.

A private driveway leading off Bois Lane in Chesham Bois. Between the white gatepost and the sign is another wooden gate, for a footpath leading to the church (visible in the background).

Bois Hill, on the left, is an unmade road providing access to a row of houses. Bois Moor Road, on the right, bends round to the right to cross a narrow bridge over the railway. The bridge is too narrow for vehicles to pass, but the bend in the road means that drivers cannot see oncoming traffic. Traffic lights have therefore been provided to control the flow of traffic across the bridge.
