Great and Little Kimble cum Marsh is a compact rural parish sitting on the scarp and lower slopes of the Chiltern Hills in west Buckinghamshire, not far from Princes Risborough and the Aylesbury Vale. The landscape is typical Chiltern chalk downland and beech woodland, with lanes, hedgerows and good walking country that feels a long way from urban life despite reasonable rail and road links.
Settlement here has deep roots and the area retains a distinctly village character: small farms and country houses, a handful of local services and an active community life centred on village halls and occasional fetes. Economically it remains largely agricultural, yet many residents commute to nearby towns or London, while the lanes and footpaths attract walkers and cyclists who appreciate the parish’s quiet historic charm.
