Description
Conservation Ares designated in 1989 (Cadmore End Common) and 2000 (Cadmore End) (B1-2).
Up in the Chilterns some 2,000 acres once formed three detached portions of Lewknor parish [Oxfordshire] and together constituted the division of Lewknor Uphill, but in 1844 they were transferred to Buckinghamshire. Cadmore End was made in 1852 into a separate parish (B3).
Cadmore is mentioned in a legal document of 1236 (B4).
'Cadmore End' is marked on OS maps from 1812 onwards (B5).
