Calvert Green is a small civil parish in Buckinghamshire centred on a relatively new housing estate built on reclaimed clay-pit and former brickworks land. The settlement is notable for its man-made lakes and pockets of green space that sit within an otherwise agricultural landscape, reflecting the area's industrial past and subsequent landscaping for recreation and wildlife.
The community is largely residential with local facilities such as a village hall, play areas and sports pitches, and many households are commuter-oriented thanks to nearby road and rail links. Local economic and planning discussions are shaped by light industrial and energy/waste facilities in the vicinity and by proposals for improved transport infrastructure, so the parish combines a quiet village feel with issues typical of rapidly changing rural-edge communities.
