Explore High Wycombe
Known for
The chair-making capital of England (the Windsor chair was perfected here), the Wycombe Wanderers tradition, the Rye (the town's ancient common), the Chiltern Hills gateway, and a Buckinghamshire town of genuine industrial heritage
A little history
High Wycombe dominated the world's chair-making industry for over 200 years — at its peak producing thousands of Windsor chairs daily from Chiltern beechwood. The Wycombe Museum tells this story brilliantly. The Rye — the ancient common beside the River Wye — has been the town's green heart for centuries. The Mayor is traditionally weighed each year to check they haven't profited from office.
The Wycombe Museum for the chair-making story — surprisingly fascinating. The Rye for a lovely riverside walk. The weighing of the Mayor ceremony is a genuine tradition worth seeing if you can. The Chiltern Hills walking from the town.
