Westcott is a small village and civil parish in Buckinghamshire, a few miles south of Aylesbury on the northern rim of the Chiltern Hills. It retains a rural feel with traditional cottages, a parish church and village amenities, sitting among rolling farmland and chalk downland that make it popular with walkers and commuters alike.
The parish has an interesting 20th‑century twist: the former airfield and Rocket Propulsion Establishment at RAF Westcott has been repurposed as Westcott Venture Park, a hub for aerospace, engineering and tech firms. That juxtaposition of agricultural roots, historic buildings and a modern business park gives the village a distinctive social and economic mix.
