			is a parish on the river Thames and Wick, one and a half miles south from Bourne End station, on the Maidenhead, Wycombe and Oxford branch of the Great Western railway, 3 and a half south-west from Beaconsfield, 6 south-east from High Wycombe and 4 north from Maidenhead, in the Southern division of the county, hundred of Desborough, Marlow petty sessional division, Wycombe county court district, Wycombe union, rural deanery of Wycombe, Archdeaconry of Buckingham and diocese of Oxford. The church of St. Nicholas, one of the smallest in the county, is beautifully situated on a hill 213 feet above the level of the sea, within Hedsor Park, and is a structure of chalk and flint with stone facings in the Decorated style, consisting of chancel, nave, north aisle, baptistery, west porch and a belfry: according to a somewhat eccentric inscription on a tomb at the west end of the church, it was "re-edified" by Roland Hynd, then owner of the manor, in I575: a north aisle was added and the church restored generally by George, 4th Lord Boston, in I862, and a reredos of stone enriched with mosaics has since been erected; the chancel screen, of oak with brass gates, is a memorial to Florance George Henry, 5th Lord Boston, who died 3rd January, 1877: there are several memorial windows, a tablet to Roland Hynd and one erected by Frederick, 2nd Baron Boston, in 1801, to Nathaniel Hooke, author of a Roman History, who died 19th July, 1763, and is buried here: in 1886 considerable alterations were made in the church, a baptistery was erected on the site of the old porch, and a new porch built at the west end of the aisle: the stone pulpit was adorned with quatrefoils, mosaic work and marble bosses, and the interior rearranged and decorated: the church affords 150 sittings: the churchyard presents an unusually simple appearance, from the fact that all the tombstones are level with the turf, which custom has always prevailed here, these are only from 12 to 18 inches square, and simply bear name and dates. The register dates from the year 1678;many earlier entries are included in the registers of Little Marlow. The living is a rectory, net yearly valne £70, with Residence, in the gift of the Bishop of Oxford (one turn) and of Lord Boston (two turns), and held since I904 by the Rev. Robert George Suther Demaus M.A. of Lincoln College, Oxford. There are charities of £2 annual value. Hedsor House, rebuilt in 1862, the property of Lord Boston D.L. is a noble mansion of white brick with stone dressings, in the Italian style, and is situated on an eminence 303 feet above sea level affording on the south-west a fine view of the river Thames: the house is surrounded by extensive and tastefully laid out pleasure grounds, in which, on the summit of a hilL stands an ornamental castellated building overlooking Cookham: the square tower was erected by George, 3rd Baron Boston, in memory of King George ITI.; the mansion is at present (1911) unoccupied. Lord Boston is lord of the manor and principal landowner. The soil is gravelly loam; subsoil, sand. The land is wood, arable and pasture. The area is 531 acres of land and 11 of water; rateable value, £1,719; the population in 1911 was 172.
