Prestwood is a village in Buckinghamshire and it is located in the Chiltern Hills, about a mile west of Great Missenden, and four miles north of High Wycombe. The village name is Anglo Saxon in origin, and means 'Priest-wood'. There is evidence of settlement in Prestwood from the Middle Ages, when the village was mainly covered in oak, beech and ash trees. Hatches Farm is one of the buildings that dates from the medieval period.
In the Victorian era, Prestwood and nearby Great Missenden lay on the road between London and Birmingham. The two villages became important resting points for travellers, several rest inns came into being. Prestwood's pubs numbering twelve owe part of their legacy to this fact, the name of the Travellers' Rest pub being a notable example.
In the Second World War, a prisoner of war camp was established at Peterley Wood, whilst Prestwood Park House was used as a hospital. Also, two bombers collided over Prestwood with much of the wreckage falling close to Nanfans Farm. Only one member of the two crews survived the collision. A plaque commemorating the tragedy can be found outside the Limes Tea House at the local garden centre. Prestwood was home to former British Prime Minister Earl Attlee from 1950. He later moved to Martinsend Lane in Great Missenden. After retiring he took his seat in the House of Lords as Earl Attlee and Viscount Prestwood.
The house in Martinsend Lane is currently occupied by musician and broadcaster Steve Race.
During the 19th Century Prestwood was famous for its cherry orchards and parties of Londoners would travel to the area during the spring, to view the beautiful blossoms.
Chequers the country residence of the Prime Minister, is a few miles north of the village. Former Prime Minister Tony Blair often brought his family to the Great Missenden Catholic church in Great Missenden at the weekends.
