Chimney sweeps in Little Chalfont

Nobody wants to fire up their solid fuel stove or light their fire when the weather takes a turn for the worse, only to discover that their chimney is in desperate need of a chimney sweeps attention.

Not only can a dirty chimney smell bad, but it can also pose a genuine risk of a chimney fire or even the deadly build up of toxic fumes if the flue is not drawing correctly.

This may be down to a build up of creosote from previous burning, or it may be from nest building that has taken place during the breeding season of birds or squirrels. Whatever the cause, a chimney sweep is a must to ensure you and your families health and safety.

Where is Little Chalfont?

Little Chalfont is a lovely little village and civil parish in south-east Buckinghamshire. It is one of a group of villages known collectively as "The Chalfonts", which also comprises Chalfont St Giles and Chalfont St Peter. Little Chalfont is located around two miles east of Amersham and just shy of twenty-two miles northwest of Charing Cross in central London.

History of Little Chalfont

Little Chalfont is actually a twentieth century creation that was triggered by the building of the Metropolitan Railway. A station called Chalfont Road was opened in 1889 at the northernmost point of Chalfont St Giles Parish where the parishes of Amersham, Chenies, and Chalfont St Giles met. At that time, the area was remote from the centres of the villages and towns, and consisted of isolated farms and cottages, and did not have a specific name.

The arrival of the railway eventually brought local housing development, and a community began to spring up around the station, which was renamed Chalfont & Latimer station in 1915, a name which it retains to this day.

The first appearance of the name Little Chalfont is in the minutes of the Chalfont St Giles Parish Council in 1925, when, at the request of the inhabitants, it was agreed that the group of houses near the station should be named Little Chalfont instead of "Chalfont Road Village". For many years, Little Chalfont was split mainly in the Amersham Town Council area, and partly in Chalfont St Giles parish. Following a period of campaigning by local residents, the village was awarded separate Parish status in 2007. Most of the new Parish came from Amersham, but a small part of Chalfont St Giles was also included.

Landmarks in Little Chalfont

Beel House is a 10,194 square feet Grade II listed sixteenth century house on the edge of Little Chalfont. Originally owned by the Duke of Buckingham. It was the home of Mary Penington whose daughter Gulielma Springett married William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania. Later residents include the actor Dirk Bogarde, the film director Basil Dearden, Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne and his wife Sharon, and Robert Kilroy-Silk. Today, this historic Little Chalfont property is occupied by the Russian film moguls Sergei Oleg Yershov and Olga Romanov.

Religion in Little Chalfont

Little Chalfont is part of the Church of England parish of Chenies and Little Chalfont. In 1987, it joined with the neighbouring parishes of Latimer and Flaunden to form the Chenies Benefice. The parish church of St George's is on White Lion Road.

St Aidan's Roman Catholic church is on Finch Lane. It was opened in 1964, having been built on land bought from the Beel House estate.

Little Chalfont Methodist Church is on Chalfont Avenue. The original church building was opened in 1959. After the church was damaged by fire in 1993, the current church building was opened in 1996.

A beautiful new nature park for Little Chalfont

Little Chalfont Nature Park is in the heart of the Buckinghamshire village of Little Chalfont and within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It has been created from the original preserved natural grassland and woodland by the local village community. The Little Chalfont Park is owned by Little Chalfont Charitable Trust and run by Little Chalfont Parish Council. The park opened on 1st June 2016 and is open to visitors from dawn to dusk all the year round.

Little Chalfont nature park is relatively small, at only 4.6 acres, but it contains a rare wildflower meadow, old woodlands, and relics of its past as a farm, cherry orchard, and pits for extracting clay to make bricks. There are marked paths, a place where you can enjoy picnics, and a story-telling arena. As well as being a peaceful and beautiful place in which to relax and contemplate, it's also an excellent place for children of all ages to learn about the natural world and conservation for their future.
