Flaunden is a small village in Hertfordshire, next door to Bovingdon. It has remained relatively unchanged, with many of the houses being hundreds of years old. The original village of Flaunden was located on the banks of the river Chess between Latimer and Chenies about one and a half miles away from the present village. Records are vague but there are signs of settlement in the Chess Valley in Roman times.
There was a small chapel here, built in about the year 1200, and a few cottages. Nothing now remains of this, the church having been abandoned in the 19th Century and left to fall down. The village probably migrated up the hill because the valley was prone to flooding. The church of St Mary Magdalene was built in 1838, near to the centre of the present village. Many of the villagers were workers on the Estate of Lord Chesham, who lived at the nearby Latimer House.
A Roman villa stood near the old village, at Latimer, with a Roman Road passing through the present village on its way through Bovingdon to Hemel Hempstead. The Doomsday Book does not mention Flaunden but it does provide a picture of what the area might have looked like at that time, mainly wilderness but with watermills along the river Chess. In the latter part of the 1200s a manor of Flaunden was held as a separate entity by a Nicholas de Flaunden the manor was later granted to his son Thomas who improved it and named it after him and it became a village.
In the 18th century the village of Flaunden slowly began to decline on the banks of the Chess and expand at the top of the hill the reason for this is unclear but it is thought a combination of the plague from rags carrying the disease brought to Chesham for making paper and flooding from the river was the main cause.
The movement uphill was accelerated by the building of a new church there in 1838 and by the end of the 19th century only two cottages and an orchard remained in occupation on the original site. The old village is now lost under the grass. And now, the village of Flaunden flourishes.
