Beaconsfield is a market town and civil parish inside the South Buckingham district in Buckinghamshire, centred 23.6 miles (38 kilometres) north west of London and 17 miles (27 kilometres) south east of the county's administrative town, Aylesbury. Four towns are within five miles of Beaconsfield: Slough, Amersham, Gerrards Cross and High Wycombe. It has an area of 7.59 square miles. Based on the 2011 Census, the town boasts a permanent population of roughly 12,081 inhabitants. The parish church at the crossroads of Old Beaconsfield is dedicated to St. Mary, and it was rebuilt of flint and bath stone by the Victorians in 1869. The United Reformed Church in Beaconsfield can trace its roots of non-conformist worship in the town back to 1704. Old Beaconsfield features several old coaching inns along a wide street of red brick homes and modest shops. It was the first coach stopping place on the road between London and Oxford. An annual fair is traditionally held on 10th May. Its charter, granted in 1269, originally established a yearly market for the trading goods and livestock, but it has now evolved into a funfair, erected for one day only. In recent times, some residents have opposed the fair as a hindrance to the Old Town, and have called for the 735 year-old fair to be scrapped. The town is adjacent to the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and boasts a wide area of Georgian, neo-Georgian and Tudor revival high street architecture, referred to as the Old Town. It is notable for the first model village in the world and, in education, a direction and technical production institute, the National Film and Television School.
