Full Description: Princes Risborough is situated on the Western side of Buckinghamshire. The civil parish comprises the small country town of Princes Risborough, the village of Monks Risborough, and the hamlets of Whiteleaf, with its notable Cross cut in the chalk hillside, Alscot, Askett, Cadsden and part of Horsenden. The parish measures approximately four square miles. Princes Risborough is splendidly situated between the steep westward escarpment of the Chiltern Hills and the fertile Vale of Aylesbury. The town stands about 400 feet above sea level but the higher parts of the parish above Whiteleaf attain an elevation of nearly 800 feet. The Chilterns here command some fine panoramic views, extending over the Thames into Berkshire, westwards to Oxford and north-westwards across the Midland shires.
