Princes Risborough
Most people know Princes Risborough as the platform where they changed trains, which undersells it, though not by as much as the locals would like. Someone cut a giant chalk cross into the hill above the town and nobody can agree who or when, and a heritage railway runs steam trains to Chinnor and back for no reason beyond the pleasure of it. Prime ministers have spent their weekends at Chequers, just over the ridge, for a century. The town has never once made a fuss about it, which is the most Princes Risborough thing about Princes Risborough.
