Westcott is a small village in Buckinghamshire, a few miles east of Aylesbury on the northern edge of the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It keeps a rural, village feel with a church, village hall and local pub, and is popular with walkers who use the surrounding lanes and footpaths.
What marks Westcott out is the nearby Westcott Venture Park, established on the site of the wartime airfield RAF Westcott, which now hosts high‑tech and engineering firms and test facilities; this gives the area an unusual mix of agricultural, commuter and specialist industrial activity while remaining firmly rooted as a Buckinghamshire village within easy reach of London.
