Hazlemere

Hazlemere is a hamlet in the parish of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located to the north of the town, near Amersham.

The hamlet was not a major part of High Wycombe, until the urban sprawl of recent years. In the Victorian era the railway arrived in High Wycombe, and the principal station in the town was located on Amersham Hill, close to the hamlet of Hazlemere. From that point on, it was inevitable that Hazlemere would become a large built up area. It is now indistinguishable from the rest of High Wycombe.
