Overview

Exploring the rolling countryside to the north east of Great Missenden in an area mercifully untouched by the HS2 earthworks. We'll pass through the villages of Lee Common, Swan Bottom, Lee Gate and finally The Lee - a favourite Midsomer Murders location and scene of nine murders, three suicides and one accidental death. Fictional serial killers permitting, we'll stop for a picnic on the green before making our way back to Ballinger Common.
