After seeing many other Alphabetical series, we decided to do our own for our corner of the county of Buckinghamshire.The caches all vary, some are bigger than others, but none are micros and all have room for swaps.
Granborough (previously Grandborough) is a village and is also a civil parish within Aylesbury Vale district in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located about five miles north of Waddesdon, seven miles south east of Buckingham. The nearest town is Winslow.The village name is Anglo Saxon in origin, and means 'green hill'. In the Domesday Book of 1086 the village was recorded as Grenesberga.
Anciently the manor of Granborough was owned by the abbey at St Albans, though in the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1547 ownership passed automatically to the Crown. The ancient parish church, dedicated to St John the Baptist, was demolished during the English Civil War, though was rebuilt shortly after the Restoration of the Monarchy in 1685.
The village is still one of the possessions of the Crown. There is a public house, logically called the Crown. After the parish church the most interesting building is the neat half-timbered Arts and Crafts village hall. Granborough still has very many thatched cottages and houses, many of them in Green End.
